ZC100 Card Printer
NEXT GENERATION SIMPLICITY AND SECURITY IN A ‘FIT EVERYWHERE’ DESIGN 
Whether you need to print single-sided employee identity badges or membership and event guest cards, card printing is a crucial 
aspect of your business. Deployment flexibility and the time it takes to print and manage your card printing solutions all have an 
impact on your business — from your brand image to staff productivity, overall operational efficiency and operating costs. Now, 
there’s a new kind of card printer designed to address it all — the ZC100. You get groundbreaking simple operation and the slimmest 
fit-everywhere design, along with a toolbox of additional capabilities that make the ZC100 even easier to integrate, use and manage. 
The ZC100 — when only the best single-sided card printer will do.
ELEGANTLY ENGINEERED FOR 
GAMECHANGING SIMPLICITY
Painless plug-and-play deployment
The ZC100 is designed to work right 
out of the box. There’s no time-consuming 
complicated set-up — just plug it in and 
start reaping the benefits the day your 
printer arrives. 
A new ingenious card feeder handles 
varying card thickness on-the-fly
The card feeder instantly adjusts to the 
thickness of each card — no more adjusting 
for dierent card stocks.
The most intuitive LEDs
With our well-tested intuitive icons, a quick 
glance is all it will take for your users to see 
the status of the ZC100. 
We speak your language
Workers can interact with the ZC100 in their 
native tongue with driver support for multiple 
languages — English, Italian, Spanish, 
Portuguese (Brazilian), German, Polish, 
Russian, Simplified Chinese and Arabic.
GROUNDBREAKING ‘FITS 
EVERYWHERE’ DESIGN
Good looks that fit in anywhere
Even though the ZC100 is built for business, it 
has the consumer good looks required to fit in 
customer facing areas, from the retail store to 
the hospital admission desk. 
Sized to fit wherever you need printing 
Your printer shouldn’t dictate where you  
can issue cards — it should fit wherever 
card printing is needed. From the minimal 
footprint and the slimmest profile to the 
lowest clearance in this printer class, the 
ZC100 was designed to fit in the most 
possible places — including under a  
counter or shelf.
All the connectivity options you need 
Connect to one computer through the 
onboard USB to create a standalone printing 
station. Or, add optional Ethernet or Wi-Fi  
to give everyone who needs card printing 
instant access, maximizing printer usage.  
And improve deployment flexibility with Wi-Fi 
— the time and cost to run network cabling to 
your printers is eliminated.
Printer cover lock
The printer cover lock prevents the theft of 
card stock, providing the security required  
to install in public-facing areas. 
Innovative new driver with 
a graphical user interface
The intuitive interface in the newly-designed 
driver makes it easier than ever to print cards. 
Settings are grouped logically into tabs 
where they are easily accessible with a 
click. A visual display of your card allows 
you to instantly see how your card looks 
and how setting changes impact card 
design — eliminating the time and cost to 
repeatedly print test cards.
Revolutionary new hopper design
The completely re-designed hopper makes 
loading and unloading cards easier than ever. 
With the saloon-style output doors, there’s 
nothing to open — just grab one card or the 
whole stack of cards. And the input and output 
hoppers have the same capacity, reducing the 
need to refill and empty the hoppers.
Fool-proof ribbon changing
Changing a ribbon has never been so simple 
and uncomplicated — no instructions required. 
Unlock and open the newly designed ribbon 
door latch in one motion. The unique door- 
handle style grip leaves no question about how 
to remove or insert the ribbon. The snug-fit 
design has no play or adjacent open areas, so 
there’s never a question about whether the 
ribbon is installed correctly and in the proper 
place. And with embedded smartchips, you 
always know when to change the ribbon.
Eortless manual card feed
Manually feeding a card can be complicated 
— we made it simple with a lightpipe that 
guides the user through the manual feeding 
process, the same way that automatic teller 
machines guide users through their interaction.
