When it may not be suitable

These cards are designed specifically for thermal card printers and may not be suitable for standard desktop inkjet or laser printers. They are also not intended for applications requiring flexible or paper-based materials, as their rigid PVC construction is optimized for plastic card printing systems.

How to use

To use these cards, simply load them into the input hopper of your compatible Zebra thermal card printer. Ensure the printer is clean and free of debris before starting your print job to maintain the integrity of the card surface. The cards are ready to be printed on directly from the packaging; avoid touching the surface of the cards with bare hands to prevent oils from affecting the print quality. Once printed, the cards can be used immediately for identification or access control purposes.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your printer model supports 30 mil thickness cards.
• Ensure your printer is compatible with standard PVC card stock.
• Consider the volume of your printing needs to ensure the 500-pack size meets your requirements.
• Check if your printer requires specific cleaning cycles to maintain print quality.

Usage recommendations: Always store the cards in a cool, dry environment and keep them in their original sealed packaging until use to prevent dust accumulation, which can negatively impact print quality and printer longevity.
