The Code Reader 3500 (CR3500) decodes bar codes faster and offers features not found in other readers, including new automatic glare reducing illumination technology. The result is unequaled performance, even on difficult reading surfaces, including circuit boards, IV bags, patient-wristbands, driver licenses and other shiny or curved surfaces. The Reader 3500 (CR3500) also offers the next generation in dual-field optics and is the only bar code reader that can read both wide linear and the smallest of 2D bar codes. The optimal focus and field of view indicator of the Reader 3500 (CR3500) make bar code reading even easier than before.
