The Newland HR12 Anchoa is a practical, user-friendly entry-level corded 1D barcode scanner at a very competitive price. Its 1500-pixel CCD sensor and Newland's 1D decoder chip read all major 1D barcodes at 300 scans per second – standard EAN-13 codes from 5 cm up to 65 cm – while drawing only 55 mA. Lightweight, IP41-rated and backed by a 5-year warranty, it is an easy choice for everyday checkout and stock work. This version, NLS-HR1250-70, is supplied with a 2 m USB cable that is permanently attached to the scanner – simply plug it into a USB port and start scanning.
📦 What's in the box – NLS-HR1250-70
- ✅ Newland HR12 Anchoa scanner – black, 1D linear imager (CCD), USB
- ✅ USB cable (attached) – 2 m, permanently connected to the scanner (not detachable) – plug and play, powered via the USB port, no power supply needed
- ❌ Stand – not included
💡 Want to keep the scanner within reach without taking up desk space? Add the Newland NLS-STD-WM001 wall mount clip. Please note: the HR12 Anchoa has a fixed USB cable and no stand is offered for it – if you need hands-free scanning with a stand, an RS-232 connection or a replaceable cable, choose the Newland HR11 Aringa instead, e.g. the NLS-HR1150P-30F kit with a foldable smart stand.
Key Features
- 1D CCD scanning – a 1500-pixel CCD sensor with red LED illumination reads all major 1D barcodes, including EAN/UPC, Code 128, Code 39, Interleaved 2 of 5 and GS1 DataBar. Please note: it does not read 2D codes such as QR codes or Data Matrix.
- Fast and responsive – 300 scans per second and a 40° field of view; 13 mil EAN-13 codes are read from 5 to 65.5 cm, with generous reading angles (pitch and skew ±60°).
- Plug-and-play USB – the attached 2 m USB cable connects directly to a PC, laptop or POS system and also powers the scanner, so no separate power supply is needed.
- Flexible scan modes – trigger, automatic sense, continuous and command-trigger modes let you adapt the scanner to your workflow.
- Ergonomic and lightweight – the compact design weighs just 130 g including the cable and is easy to handle all day.
- Energy-efficient – an operating current of only 55 mA (21 mA in standby) keeps power consumption low.
- Reliable, with a 5-year warranty – IP41 protection, ESD protection up to ±10 kV (air discharge) and operation from −20 °C to 60 °C; backed by a 5-year warranty.
