Zebra ZC300 ID Card Printer (Single-Sided) Overview The ZC300 is built for organisations issuing ID cards regularly, not occasionally. It has card printing capabilities of up to 900 monochrome cards an hour, or 200 in full colour, so it's designed for keeping up with busy production runs. And at 300dpi edge-to-edge printing, your card design comes out exactly the way you want it every time. It's a strong step up from an entry-level printer without the cost or complexity of an enterprise system. Key Features: Direct-to-card, dye-sublimation thermal transfer printing, edge-to-edge 300dpi resolution Print speeds up to 900 monochrome cards/hour, 200 full-colour cards/hour (single-sided) Dual-sided model: up to 450 monochrome cards/hour, 140 full-colour cards/hour Compatible with CR79 and CR80 cards, including PVC, PVC composite, adhesive-back, and writable-back stock Automatic card thickness adjustment Matched input and output hopper capacity AES data encryption and host authentication for network security Kensington lock point on printer cover Optional magnetic stripe encoding (high and low coercivity) Optional third-party contactless encoding USB and built-in Ethernet connectivity, standard Optional WiFi upgrade Compatible with Windows (including Server editions), Mac, and Linux LCD interface with on-screen design preview Cassette-loaded ribbons for easy changes Saloon-style output doors for quick card removal Dimensions: 258mm (H) x 157mm (W) x 383mm (D) Weight: 4kg (single-sided), 4.4kg (dual-sided) Speed and Card Handling Single-sided, it runs 900 cards an hour in monochrome or 200 in full colour. The dual-sided version manages 450 monochrome or 140 full colour, printing both sides in the same pass. It prints to CR79 and CR80 cards, in PVC, PVC composite, and even adhesive-back or writable-back stock. The feeder adjusts automatically to card thickness, and because input and output hoppers share the same capacity, both empty and refill together rather than one running out before the other. Built-In Security AES data encryption protects card data as it's sent to the printer, and advanced host authentication stops unauthorised devices sending print jobs to it over the network. A Kensington lock point on the printer cover protects both the printer and any card stock or rejected cards inside it, which is vital for protecting information if the printer is sitting in a public-facing space rather than a locked office. Encoding and Connectivity Magnetic stripe encoding (high and low coercivity) and third-party contactless encoding are both available, so the ZC300 can produce access control cards as well as standard photo ID. USB and built-in Ethernet come as standard, with an optional WiFi upgrade if you'd rather avoid running network cable. It's compatible with Windows (including Server editions), Mac, and Linux. Day-to-Day Use An LCD interface shows ..

Zebra ZC100 ID Card Printer with USB (Single-Sided) The Zebra ZC100 single sided card printer supplied through Plastic-ID as an authorised Zebra dealer, built for organisations printing staff IDs, membership cards or event passes in-house rather than outsourcing to a print bureau. It connects via USB as standard, with Ethernet available as a field upgrade if you need it on the network from day one. Built to replace the ZXP Series 1 The ZC100 is Zebra's direct successor to its ZXP Series 1 card printer and it's genuinely faster: up to 30% quicker in monochrome and 15% quicker in full colour than the model it replaces. If you're comparing specs against an older Zebra printer you've used before, these are the practical differences you'll notice on a daily basis and why upgrading now is a great option. Security features that go beyond a locked drawer AES data encryption protects card data as it's sent to the printer and printer-to-host authentication means only devices the printer recognises can send it a job in the first place, so a laptop plugged in without permission can't start printing your organisation's ID cards. Physically, the printer cover has a Kensington lock point built in, protecting the printer itself and the card stock loaded inside it from theft, useful anywhere it'll sit in an open reception area rather than a locked office. Genuinely simple to run day to day The card feeder adjusts automatically to whatever card thickness is loaded, so there's no manual recalibration switching between card types. The driver interface shows an on-screen preview of your design before it prints, which cuts out the cost and time of repeatedly printing test cards just to check alignment. Ribbon changes are built to be difficult to get wrong and Zebra's own engineering brief for this model was making it the slimmest printer in its class, so it sits comfortably on a reception desk or a shelf rather than needing dedicated floor space. Zebra ZC100 Specifications This Zebra card printer features some really impressive specs, including: Manufacturer Zebra Model ZC100 (33-1065) Print technology Dye-sublimation / thermal transfer, direct-to-card Print sides Single-sided Card format CR80, various plastic card thicknesses Resolution 300dpi Print speed Up to 700 cards/hour monochrome, up to 150 cards/hour full colour (YMCKO) Card hopper capacity 100 card input hopper, 100 card output hopper, auto-adjusting for card thickness Connectivity USB as standard, Ethernet as a configuration option Encoding options Field-upgradeable ISO HiCo/LoCo magnetic stripe, software-selectable Security features AES data encryption, printer-to-host authentication, printer cover with Kensington lock point Warranty 3-year limited warranty on printer and printhead Dimensions 258mm (H) x 157mm (W) x 383mm (D) We..

Zebra ZC350 ID Card Printer Overview The ZC350 is Zebra's top-of-the-line printer in the ZC series, built for organisations that want everything: fast, professional card printing with genuine security features, and an easy-to-use interface. Key Features: Direct-to-card printing, edge-to-edge, 300dpi resolution Print speeds up to 225 full-colour cards/hour (single-sided) and 1,000 monochrome cards an hour Dual-sided model: up to 150 full-colour cards/hour, up to 500 monochrome cards/hour Reworked card hopper for smoother, uninterrupted batch printing Suitable for photo ID, access control, membership, gift, loyalty, and payment cards AES data encryption and printer-to-host authentication Kensington lock point on printer cover Optional magnetic stripe encoding (high and low coercivity) Optional contactless encoding USB and Ethernet connectivity, standard SDK available for custom application integration On-screen design preview, no test cards needed Saloon-style output doors for easy card removal Easy-change ribbon cassette Compact footprint, suited to counters and reception desks 3-year manufacturer warranty on printer and printhead Dimensions: Single-sided: 258mm (H) x 157mm (W) x 383mm (D), weight 4.0kg (8.8 lbs) Dual-sided: 258mm (H) x 157mm (W) x 468mm (D), weight 4.4kg (9.7 lbs) Speed and Card Handling Single-sided, it prints up to 225 full-colour cards an hour and 1,000 monochrome cards at 300dpi, edge-to-edge. The dual-sided version manages up to 150 full-colour cards an hour, or 500 in monochrome, printing both sides in the same pass. A completely reworked card hopper keeps a badging programme running smoothly rather than needing constant attention, and it handles more than standard photo ID, with employee badges, membership cards, gift cards and loyalty cards all possible. Built-In Security AES data encryption protects card data as it's sent to the printer, and printer-to-host authentication stops unauthorised devices sending print jobs to it over a network. A Kensington lock point on the printer cover protects both the printer and any card stock or rejected cards inside it from being taken, which is useful when it's sitting in a public-facing space rather than a locked office. Encoding and Connectivity Magnetic stripe encoding (high and low coercivity) and contactless encoding are both available, so the ZC350 can produce access control cards alongside standard photo ID. USB and Ethernet come as standard, and it's built for easy integration, with an SDK available for custom applications if your organisation needs one. Day-to-Day Use An on-screen preview shows your design before it prints, cutting out the need for physical test cards. Saloon-style output doors and easy-change ribbons make daily operation straightforward, and the ZC350's compact size means it fits easily on a counter in retail, leisure, or hospitalit..

The Zebra ZC100 is a single-sided card printer built for low to medium print volumes and this bundle gets you printing on day one: printer, design software, ribbon and blank cards all in one. What's included in the ZC100 Card Printer Bundle Zebra ZC100 single-sided ID card printer CardStudio 2.0 card design software 200 blank white PVC cards Zebra YMCKO full-colour ribbon (200 prints) We'd recommend picking up an additional printer ribbon and pack of cards while you're here too, as well as some lanyards and card holders. But even if you just buy this bundle, you'll have everything you need to start printing ID cards in your organisation. Zebra ZC100 Printer Overview The Zebra ZC100 is a single-sided card printer built for straightforward, low to medium-volume ID card printing. It prints up to 150 full-colour cards an hour at 300dpi onto standard CR80 cards, with a plug-and-play setup and an automatic card feeder that adjusts to different card thicknesses without manual tweaking. Security is built in rather than added on: AES encryption protects card data in transit and printer-to-host authentication stops unauthorised devices sending jobs to it. It's a compact, business-appropriate printer suited to receptions, offices and customer-facing counters alike. Features and Benefits Dye-Sublimation / Thermal Transfer Printer Technology Print Up To 150 Cards Per Hour (Full-Colour / YMCKO), Up To 700 Cards Per Hour (Monochrome) Standard CR80 Size Compatibility Standard Single-Sided, Edge-to-Edge Printing 300dpi Resolution 100 Card Input Hopper Capacity 100 Card Output Tray Capacity Automatic Plastic Card Thickness Adjustment AES Data Encryption to Protect Sensitive Data During Printing Print-To-Host Authentication Prevents Unauthorised Printing Printer Cover with Kensington Lock Point to Prevent Card Theft Dimensions: 258mm (H) x 157mm (W) x 383mm (D) Weight: 3.9kg (8.6 lbs) USB Connectivity as Standard, with Optional Ethernet Upgrade Optional Magnetic Stripe Encoding 3-Years Limited Printer and Printhead Warranty Effortless Card Feeding with Redesigned Input/Output Hoppers Built-in security features, not bolted on This Zebra printer has advanced security features such as "government-grade encryption" data protection. AES encryption protects card data as it's sent to the printer and printer-to-host authentication stops unauthorised devices from sending print jobs to it in the first place. On the physical side, the printer includes a Kensington lock point, so it can be secured to a desk rather than left free for anyone to walk off with, along with the card stock loaded inside it. Day-to-day handling The card feeder automatically adjusts to whatever card thickness you load, so there's no manual recalibration between batches. Ribbon changes don't need a manual either, each printer ribbon comes pre-loaded into a cassette for easy installation. Zebra recommends cleaning the ZC100 every 1,000 prints or sooner if ..

About the Zebra ZC10L Large Format Card Printer The Zebra ZC10L is a large format plastic card printer suited to use in the hospitality and events sector, lending itself to producing high-quality event passes, delegate badges or visitor badges. The ZC10L is the only direct-to-card printer on the market that is capable of printing full-colour cards with an edge-to-edge print, all in one process! The printer makes it possible to produce event passes that are personalised and printed on the spot for event attendees. Prints on large format cards (approx. 88 x 140mm) Since the printer uses a full-colour print process, each card can be personalised with a photo ID or varying graphics or colours for different delegate types. Furthermore, monochrome black elements such as names, QR codes or 2D barcodes can be printed quickly and at a high quality for easy scanning. Zebra has developed a full-colour ribbon for use with the ZC10L and a monochrome black ribbon. The black ribbon is ideal for adding personalisation to pre-printed cards. Many event organisers also use the black ribbon to pre-print cards with instructions or fine print to the backs of their event badges before the event. Outstanding print quality Thanks to 300dpi print resolution, the ZC10L delivers exceptional image quality, particularly noticeable when printing more complex background graphics and design elements. This allows the user to create stunning badges that event attendees will remember. In addition to this, adding company logos and branding is easy, and your brand will not be compromised by low print quality or inaccurate colours. Reducing waste and saving time Since the ZC10L can print the entire face of the card, for some users, this can eliminate the need for ordering in a stock of pre-printed cards with the design on. As a result, there is less chance of ending up with excess card stock after the event, thus reducing waste and saving money. However, a fast print speed is required for some events that are required to produce larger quantities of passes on the spot. In this instance, we'd recommend ordering in card stock that is pre-printed with your design so that all you need to do is add the monochrome personalisation, like names and QR codes. This saves time because monochrome printing is considerably faster than full-colour printing. Ease of use The ZC10L can be paired with card production software such as CardExchange or Zebra CardStudio (a 30-day free trail is include of CardStudio with this printer) to make badge production stress-free. Designing event badges on card production software is intuitive, and connecting the software directly to a database of event attendees makes card personalisation simple and fast. The printer is reasonably compact and unobtrusive design, allowing it to fit seamlessly into any office environment. The LED display is straightforward to use and makes the navigation of printer settings easier. A large 20..
