Bundle Zebra Card Printer ZC300, Dual Sided + Ribbon + Software + 100 Cards

No matter what type of card you need to print — from identity and access to membership, event, and credit/debit cards — the ZC300 Series card printers will help you do it better, faster, and easier. The elegant engineering of the ZC300 and ZC350 card printers eliminate virtually all pain points associated with card printing. The result is push-button simplicity no matter what you are printing — a single or dual-sided magnetic stripe or contactless cards, in color or black and white. And with a ground-breaking fits-everywhere design, you can get secure card printing wherever you need it.

Groundbreaking Simplicity
With plug-and-play deployment, instant card feeder adjustment, intuitive icons, and a graphical user interface, the ZC300/ZC350 Series are easy to integrate, use, and manage. Ribbon changing is virtually fool-proof, and a revolutionary hopper design makes loading and unloading cards easier than ever.

Card Design Options
The ZC300/ZC350 Series is loaded with advanced card production features. Print what you want, when you want, from just about anywhere – single or dual-sided edge-to-edge monochrome and color cards, with new ribbons that offer specialty colors and special effects.

Fits Everywhere Design
Even though the ZC300/ZC350 Series is built for business, it has the consumer good looks required to fit in customer-facing areas – from the corporate office to the university to the retail shop. And the printer cover lock provides security by preventing theft of card stock and rejected cards.
