Tips on maintaining visitor badge printers
4/19/2021
The security professionals we talk to always love our unique expiring visitor badges, which change color overnight to prevent reuse. These badges are a critical tool in helping with security so you know who is registered to be in the building and who isn’t.
The best part is our badges are compatible with many popular direct thermal and inkjet printers. Here is a list of some of the brands that our badges are compatible with:
- DYMO
- Zebra
- Brother
- Epson
- Primera
To help keep your visitor management system running smoothly, we have put together some reference material to aid you with various printer settings that are compatible with our visitor badges. The landing pages detail the badge sizes that are compatible and the printer software settings that need to be calibrated in order to successfully print high-quality visitor badges that will help keep your facility safe.
