Innovative Features of the ZC100 Card Printer

Simplest card printers on the planet
The ZC100 is plug and play, right out of the box—no configuration needed. The ingenious card feeder self-adjusts to card thickness. The new driver offers a graphical user interface that brings a new level of simplicity to managing the printing process and the look and feel of printed cards.

Elegantly engineered for game-changing simplicity
There is only one way the ribbon can be inserted into the printer for fool-proof ribbon changes—and with smart chips in the ribbons, users are sure to always change ribbons before they are spent, avoiding needless printer downtime. With support for diverse languages, the ZC100 is ready for deployment in any part of the world.

Ground-breaking ‘fits everywhere’ design
The ZC100 is built for business, but it has the consumer good looks required to be right at home in customer-facing areas—from corporate offices to universities, to retail stores. The slimmest profile and lowest clearance requirements allow the ZC100 to fit practically anywhere card printing is needed, providing greater deployment flexibility.

Advanced security
The printer cover lock prevents theft of card stock and rejected cards, providing the security required for installation in public-facing areas. And whether users are printing employee badges, ID cards, season passes and membership cards, or credit and debit cards, they can choose the encoding option of their choice. Options include adding a ‘swipe-and-go’ magnetic stripe, or a ZIP Pocket with Zebra’s new Software Development Kits (SDKs) to easily incorporate a third party contactless encoder for ‘pass through’ contactless cards.

New capabilities and the right support boost value
Zebra’s Print DNA family of solutions brings unmatched ease of use, ease of integration, and security to card printing, streamlining business processes, improving operational efficiency, and reducing development and deployment time and cost. No matter what level of support a customer needs, there is a Zebra support service that is just right for their business. With Zebra OneCare, no matter what happens to a printer, it’s covered. Zebra’s Technical Software and Support (TSS) provides access to technical support. And if users need help setting up and configuring settings on local and remote ZC100 printers, Zebra’s Install & Configuration Assistance (ICA) Select program provides the support they need.
