The Zebra ZC300 ZC32-0M0C000EM00 is a dual-sided ID card printer for sharp 300 dpi full-colour or monochrome cards – dye-sublimation printing, edge to edge on standard CR80 cards. It prints both sides in one run with its built-in card flipper – up to 450 monochrome or 140 full-colour (YMCKOK) dual-sided cards per hour – and connects via USB 2.0 and 10/100 Ethernet. A built-in magnetic stripe encoder writes ISO tracks 1–3 (HiCo and LoCo) while the card is printed. Ideal for employee and visitor badges, membership, loyalty and event cards.
