ZC300 Card Printer
Design and Print Virtually Any Card with Ground-breaking Simplicity
No matter what type of card you need to print — from identity and access to membership, event and credit/debit cards — the ZC300 will help you do it better, faster and easier. If you can dream it, you can print it — single- or dual-sided, color, black and white or with special color effects. You can even embed security marks on the fly — a first for a printer in this price point. Add a magnetic stripe or create a contact or contactless card. No matter how complex your cards are, the ZC300 makes it easy — Zebra’s Industrial Design team has elegantly engineered the ZC300 to address and eliminate virtually all pain points associated with card printing. And with a ground-breaking fits-everywhere design, you can get secure card printing wherever you need it.
The Simplest Card Printer on the Planet
Highly Graphical LED/LCD Interface
The ZC300 offers highly-intuitive well-tested icons, animations and text-based messages in your own language, allowing any user to easily understand what the printer needs and how to perform virtually any function — including how to clear a printer jam, fix a ribbon, load a ribbon or cards and more.
