Datalogic Gryphon GD4500: The Next-Level 2D Barcode Scanner!

Looking for a fast, versatile, and ergonomic barcode scanner for your business? The Datalogic Gryphon GD4500 series is engineered for high-volume environments like retail checkout, and industrial logistics, combining advanced scanning performance with industry-leading usability.

Why the Gryphon GD4500 Series Stands Out

The GD4500 isn’t just another handheld scanner—it’s a powerhouse of innovation:

  • Megapixel sensor for ultra-fast decoding

  • Warm white illumination for better contrast on digital and printed codes

  • Motionix™ technology to switch seamlessly between hand-held and presentation modes

Corded or Wireless? Your Choice

Whether you need a USB-powered corded scanner or a wireless model with inductive charging, the Gryphon GD4500 offers both:

  • Bluetooth or Datalogic’s STAR radio options

  • Inductive wireless charging eliminates exposed contacts—less wear and tear, more uptime

User-Centric Design

Designed with the operator in mind, the Gryphon GD4500 includes:

  • A 4-dot aimer with crosshair for easy targeting

  • Datalogic’s patented Green Spot and optional 3GL™ for instant feedback

  • Comfortable grip and reduced fatigue—even during extended shifts


Scan Virtually Any Code

The Gryphon GD4500 supports:

  • 1D & 2D barcodes

  • Stacked and composite codes

  • Postal codes

  • Digimarc® watermarking (on select models)

Need precision? Choose the HD version for scanning high-density codes on small labels or screens.



Can It Scan Passports?

The Datalogic Gryphon GD4500 can scan 2D barcodes commonly found on ID cards and some travel documents (like PDF417 codes).

However, it does not support MRZ (Machine Readable Zone) scanning or OCR required for reading passport lines. If you require full passport reading, including MRZ or RFID chips, you’ll need a dedicated document scanner with OCR capabilities.


Rugged & Reliable

This scanner is built to last:

  • IP52 rating for dust and water protection

  • Withstands multiple 1.8-meter (6 ft) drops

  • Tested for 10+ million trigger pulls

 

Flexible Connectivity & Integration

The Datalogic Gryphon GD4500 easily integrates into your setup with:

  • USB, RS-232, Keyboard Wedge

  • Multi-interface models available

  • Compatible with Datalogic’s EASEOFCARE service plans

 

Ideal for High-Demand Industries

Retail & POS – Speed up checkout lines and mobile scanning
Manufacturing & Logistics – Label verification, parts picking, inventory control
