Zebra ZC350 Dual Sided ID Card Printer

Easy to set up

The ZC350 is plug and play, right out of the box — no configuration needed. The slimmest profile and lowest clearance requirements allow the ZC350 to fit practically anywhere, providing the greatest deployment flexibility — it easily fits under a shelf and in other space constrained areas where other printers just can’t fit.

Seamless integration into your organization

With standard Ethernet and USB connection ports and optional WiFi, the ZC350 can slot into any infrastructure. You can manage your ZC350 printer on-site or remotely via multiple computers or even mobile devices. The interface and software also supports various languages to adapt to your human resources.

Printing without limits

The ZC350 prints up to 300 dpi from monochrome to brilliant full-color YMCKO. With Zerba’s genuine ribbons, you can print just about anything you can think of. Print single or dual-sided cards with edge-to-edge technology. Print beautiful and anti-counterfeit effects such as 3D, pearlescent color-shifting, watermark.

Take care of all your encoding needs

The ZC350 is one of the most versatile printers in its class that can add practically any type of encoding to your cards. You can create a magnetic stripe, contact, or contactless cards with secure Access modules for payment and other applications. You can also print using your own custom or third-party encoding using Zip Pocket and the new Software Development Kit.

Printing process managing

The ingenious card feeder self-adjusts to card thickness. The new level of simplicity to managing the printing process and the look and feel of your printed cards. 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, you’re sure to always change ribbons before they are spent, avoiding needless printer downtime. The light pipe takes away any confusion, guiding users on where and how to insert the card.

Save you time

By printing up to 225 YMCKO full-color or 1,000 monochrome cards per hour, the ZC350 is one of the fastest printers in its class. Fast printing, workers spend less time printing and more time on more crucial tasks.

Added-value software

With Link-OS for Card inside, Zebra’s powerful printer operating system, you also get Print DNA, a family of printer software applications that puts the ZC350 in a class of its own by making it easier that ever to integrate card printing into your apps, design cards and support your ZC350 card printers.
