Product information
The Zebra ZC300 is a versatile card printer that Codipack offers for printing identity badges, membership cards, loyalty cards, and access passes in sectors such as retail, hospitality, and identification. With dye-sublimation thermal transfer direct-to-card technology, the printer produces edge-to-edge prints at 300 dpi resolution on standard CR-80 PVC cards with thicknesses from 10 to 40 mil. Automatic ribbon calibration and an intuitive graphical LCD interface simplify operation, while specialty ribbons add special effects and durability.
The printer supports both single- and double-sided printing at high speeds, making it ideal for low to medium volumes. A 100-card auto-adjusting input hopper and output hopper ensure continuous operation, with optional encoders for magnetic stripes and contact and contactless smart cards. Compatible with Windows, Mac OS, and Linux via USB 2.0, Ethernet, and optional 802.11ac Wi-Fi, it includes Print DNA software for management and security features such as printer authentication and data encryption.
