Zebra HC100 Ethernet Wristband Printer
Zebra HC100 is a wristband printer developed specifically to meet the unique needs of healthcare providers. This reliable patient I.D. solution makes wristband printing easier and more cost-effective than laser solutions.
This printer combines the reliable HC100 direct thermal printer with easy-to-load cartridges containing Zebra’s durable Z-Band® wristbands.
The HC100 is easy to use, just pop the wristband cartridge into the HC100 printer and print individual wristbands on demand. Compare these two simple steps with laser printing, which often requires staff to load forms into a special tray, print labels, apply a label to the band, and fold a laminate over the band.
The HC100 printer detects the wristband size that is required - adult, pediatric and infant - and automatically calibrates its settings for optimal print quality. You get long-lasting wristbands with barcodes and text that remain readable.
With more connectivity options and a small footprint, the HC100 printer works with your network and fits your workspace. The HC100 is suitable for a wide variety of applications including hospitals and outpatient clinics for patient identification, as well as amusement parks, water parks, resorts, carnivals, concerts, sporting events and zoos for guest identification.
