ZC350 Card Printer
DESIGN AND PRINT VIRTUALLY ANY CARD WITH
GROUNDBREAKING SIMPLICITY AND SPEED
When you want it all in a card printer, the ZC350 delivers. Advanced printing options allow you to create virtually any design you can
dream up. With support for just about every encoding technology, you can create just about any type of card — credit, debit, identity,
access, loyalty, public transportation passes and more. You get the fastest print speeds — up to twice as fast as some competitive
printers. You get foolproof push-button simplicity, whether you’re printing single or dual sided cards with simple monochrome or very
complex color artwork. And with its cool design, the slimmest profile and the lowest clearance, the ZC350 can fit in more spaces than
any other printer in its class. The ZC350 Series — the card printer that delivers it all.
THE SIMPLEST CARD
PRINTER ON THE PLANET
Highly graphical LED/LCD interface
The ZC350 oers highly-intuitive well-tested
icons, animations and text-based messages
in your own language, allowing any user to
easily understand what the printer needs
and how to per form virtually any function —
including how to clear a printer jam, fix a
ribbon, load a ribbon or cards and more.
Meets your need for speed
Whether you need to print one card,
hundreds of cards or thousands of cards,
with some of the fastest print speeds in
this class, you can count on the ZC350
to get the job done fast.
Groundbreaking 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 makes printing simple
monochrome and complex color cards equally
easy, allowing 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.
Painless plug-and-play set-up
The ZC350 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.
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. The newly designed ribbon door latch
unlocks and opens 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.
We speak your language
Workers can interact with the ZC350 in
their native tongue with support for multiple
languages on the LCD display and in the
driver — English, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese
(Brazilian), German, Polish, Russian, Simplified
Chinese and Arabic.

WHEN IT COMES TO CARD
DESIGN, THE SKY IS THE LIMIT
Easily print practically any
design you can imagine
The ZC350 is loaded with advanced card
production features. Print what you want, when
you want, from just about anywhere — single or
dual-sided edge-to-edge monochrome and
color cards, with new ribbons that oer
specialty colors and special eects. For
example, a new pearlescent ribbon enables
you to embed color-shifting graphics that are
hard to counterfeit, improving card security.
Make logos, text or account numbers stand out
with 3D style eects that can be created with a
new metallic color ribbon. And a new long life
ribbon provides two new capabilities. You can
embed a watermark graphic that can only be
seen when the card is tilted at an angle or
under UV light, improving security. And you can
add a highly durable protective layer to create
cards that will last for three to five years. And
even the most complex design is as easy to
print as a basic black and white card.
Encode it your way
With the ZC350, you get complete encoding
flexibility. No matter what type of encoding
technology is right for your cards, the ZC350
suppor ts it right out of the box — from
magnetic stripe and proximity to contact and
contactless. And if you want to use your own
contact or contactless encoders, the new ZIP
Pocket and our new Software Development
Kits (SDKs) combine to make it easy.
GROUNDBREAKING ‘FITS
EVERYWHERE’ DESIGN
Good looks that fit in anywhere
Even though the ZC350 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 ZC350 is
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.
Use the integrated Ethernet connection to
give everyone who needs card printing instant
access, maximizing printer usage. And improve
deployment flexibility with optional Wi-Fi,
eliminating the time and cost to run network
cabling to your printers.
Printer cover lock
The printer cover lock prevents the theft
of card stock and rejected cards, providing
the security required for installation in
public-facing areas.
ADVANCED SECURITY
Printer and host authentication
Advanced security features enable printerto-host authentication to prevent printing
from unauthorized applications or devices.
AES data encryption
Government-grade encryption protects the
most sensitive data during printing, such as
account numbers.
