Frequently asked questions

What does the warranty cover?

Our warranty covers all hardware faults, but please note it doesn’t cover accidental damage or software issues. However, we’re here to help with technical support for those matters!

What is a refurbished device?

A refurbished device is a pre-owned item that has been restored to meet high-quality standards. At Reboot IT, we adhere to strict quality guidelines, ensuring that our refurbished products are not the same as used or secondhand items. We meticulously clean, test, and assess each device, replacing worn parts with high-quality components.

Unlike used items, which lack guarantees and rely solely on the seller's word regarding condition, refurbished devices come with assurance of quality and reliability.

Description

Zebra Symbol LS2208

Key Benefits

  • Aggressive scan engine — reads damaged and poorly printed barcodes reliably in demanding conditions
  • 100+ scans per second — high-throughput environments stay moving without missed reads
  • Multi-interface — one scanner, multiple connection types: USB, RS-232, or keyboard wedge — no driver needed for USB HID
  • 1.5 m drop-rated — designed to survive counter and bench drops without data loss or physical damage
  • IP52 sealed — protected against dust ingress and drip moisture for food service and clinical environments
  • Plug-and-play USB — connects and scans immediately on Windows, macOS, and most Linux systems — zero configuration required

Performance in Use

The Zebra LS2208 is a benchmark-class 1D laser scanner that earns its place in high-volume environments. Its aggressive scan engine decodes barcodes others struggle with — low-contrast labels, wrinkled packaging, and poorly printed codes are handled with consistent accuracy at speeds up to 100 scans per second. For retail, this means checkout lanes stay moving.

Durability is a practical strong point. The 1.5 m drop rating to concrete and IP52 sealing mean the LS2208 survives the accidental drops and surface moisture that quickly decommission cheaper consumer-grade scanners. For busy warehouses, cafes, and clinics, this matters more than specs on paper.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the LS2208 read QR codes or 2D barcodes?

No — the LS2208 is a 1D laser scanner and reads only linear barcodes. For QR Code, Data Matrix, or PDF417, you need a 2D imager such as the Zebra DS2208.

What cable and interface is included?

Most units ship with a USB cable. RS-232 and keyboard wedge cables are available separately. The USB version requires no driver on modern operating systems.

Is this compatible with my POS software?

Yes — the LS2208 acts as a standard USB keyboard device and outputs decoded barcode data as keystrokes, compatible with virtually all POS and inventory software.

Does it work in bright sunlight or outdoors?

The red laser beam can be harder to see in direct bright sunlight, though the scanner will still read correctly. It is rated for 0–50°C operating temperature and is suitable for indoor and sheltered outdoor use.

What is the warranty period?

This unit includes a 12-month Reboot IT warranty covering all hardware defects and scan engine failures from the date of purchase.

All-in-one Solution for Home Office

I was looking for an in-expensive all-in-one solution for my home office to replace my existing desktop and monitor. I found this EliteOne 800 on reboot IT for under $200. I wasn't sure what to expect. It arrived within two days!!!! I upgraded the RAM, replaced the HDD and installed Windows 11. This is unbeatable value and was the cheapest price online. Coupled with a 3-month warranty, Reboot IT are by far the best online refurbished retailer I have used. Awesome!

Fair tech for price

Fair tech for price, good specs for era, serves the purpose. The black keyboard is an interesting rubber like texture clearly by design to pad the screen and avoid the keyboard touching. Screen is great. Still looking for magic formula to enable computer use in the bright bright sunshine. Keyboard taps are loud for someone who likes silent touch. The perfect PC has to exist, like build a bear.

Works excellently as advertised.

The laptop was sold with a warning about worn keycaps. In fact they had been obviously vandalised (ex school laptops, perhaps?). The keyboard worked fine, and the rest of the laptop too. I'm using it as a file server, so I don't need the keyboard much. So very pleased, and also pleased with reboot-it's service - as always, excellent, and quick responses to any queries.
