(Plano, Texas — March 25, 2014) — Wasp Barcode Technologies, a leading provider of small business productivity solutions, today announced the launch of its new line of barcode scanners. The WLS9600 and WLS8600 are designed for fast-paced barcode scanning, while the WDI4600 is intended for 2D barcode scanning.

    Wasp's new line of barcode scanners are aimed to withstand industrial environments, providing customers with high-quality scanners that can easily read barcodes at an increased speed. All scanners come with a two-year warranty.

    The WLS9600 (pictured at left) laser barcode scanner provides superior performance in fast-paced retail, office, and light industrial environments. For ease-of-use, the WLS9600 features a high motion pattern that allows the scan engine to scan barcodes quickly — including barcodes that are dirty or damaged. 

    "The WLS9600, WLS8600 and WDI4600 take Wasp Barcode scanners to the next level," says Brian Sutter, Director of Marketing, Wasp Barcode Technologies. "Not only do we provide customers with more functionality, but our barcode scanners are designed to improve customer efficiency."
