Entry-level single-sided ID card printer at 150 color cards per hour — turnkey kit prints your first card in 15 minutes.
Most equipment pages just tell you what a device does. Here's the honest version: when this machine is the right choice, when it's fine, and when you should look at something else. We offer equipment for every business need, but the right machine depends on your specific workflow.
The cheapest Zebra card printer — designed as a turnkey kit that ships with everything to print your first card in 15 minutes. The ZC100 prints 700 monochrome and 150 color cards per hour, single-sided only, with USB and Bluetooth. Includes 200 cards, a color ribbon, and Card Studio software in the box. Honest regret: single-sided only — if you need encoding or a back-of-card design, you're upgrading to ZC300 within a year.
Small gyms, summer camps, and pop-up events that need IDs printed today buy this because it works straight out of the box.

Three ways to get this printer, each priced to match how you actually use it. Most small offices lease because toner and maintenance are bundled. If you know what you need, buy outright. If you already own one, just reorder supplies.
Final lease rate depends on term length, credit profile, and bundled supplies. Outright purchase and supplies pricing varies with bundled warranty, install packages, and order volume. Request a quote for exact pricing.
