Every Zebra card printers we sell, with specifications, consumables and the service bench that repairs them. Prices on request — tell us your volume and we will quote the machine that fits it.
Zebra builds the card printers most of India's ID programmes run on, and the ZC300 in particular is the machine we install more of than any other. The range runs from a small office badge printer to a retransfer machine for government credentials, and the field-upgradeable dual-sided module in the middle of it is why a school that starts single-sided is not buying a second printer three years later.
Zebra ZC100
ZC100
The right printer for a few hundred cards a year: a small office issuing staff badges, a clinic doing patient cards, a club doing memberships. Single-sided only and it cannot be upgraded to dual later, which is the one thing to be sure about before ordering — if the back of the card needs anything printed on it, buy the ZC300 instead.

Zebra ZC300
ZC300
The card printer most Indian organisations end up on, and usually the correct answer. Three times the colour throughput of the ZC100, 100-card input and output hoppers so it runs a batch unattended, and a dual-sided flipper that can be fitted in the field later — so a school that starts single-sided in year one is not buying a second printer in year three.

Zebra ZC350
ZC350
The ZC300 mechanism with access to Zebra's specialty ribbon range — colour-shifting graphics that change as the card is tilted, and watermarks that only appear under UV. If the card is a credential somebody has a reason to forge — a staff pass into a restricted area, a student ID that gets a fare concession — this is the printer that makes a copied one obvious at a glance.

Zebra ZXP Series 7
ZXP Series 7
For an issuing bureau or a large institution running cards continuously. It processes up to three jobs at once — encoding one card, printing the next and laminating a third — which is what makes its throughput hold up over a long run rather than only on the spec sheet. Simultaneous dual-sided lamination is the reason to specify it: a laminated card survives a decade in a wallet.

Zebra ZXP Series 9
ZXP Series 9
A retransfer printer, which is a different technology from everything above it: the image is printed onto film and the film is fused to the card, so it goes genuinely edge to edge with no white border, and it prints cleanly over the bumps of a contact smart card chip that would defeat a direct-to-card printer. 600 dpi is available. This is the machine for government, banking and high-security credentials.
