Cards load into the front feeder and printed badges collect from the front output hopper, so the unit works well against a wall with no rear clearance needed. Evolis Badge Studio® is included with every printer. It gives you a library of ready-made card templates, and you can personalise any of them with names, photos, job titles, barcodes and logos. If your organisation holds staff data in a spreadsheet or database, the software can pull variable data and run a batch print in one command. You are not entering names manually one at a time. Ribbon installation is easy. The ribbon cassette clicks in and is recognised automatically, so there is no manual calibration each time you reload. Print quality and throughput At 260 x 300 dpi, the Badgy 200 produces sharp photos and clean text on standard CR-80 PVC cards. It prints across the full card face edge to edge, so there is no unprinted white border around the card design. Colour output runs at 95 cards per hour. For a small business, club or school issuing a batch of staff or member badges, that rate is more than adequate. Monochrome output runs at 325 cards per hour. If you regularly print name-only or barcode-only cards, switching to a monochrome ribbon keeps ribbon costs down. The Badgy 200 suits organisations printing up to a few hundred colour cards a year. If your volume grows significantly beyond that, the Primacy 2 is built for higher throughput. Warranty, ribbons and ongoing supplies The Ba..
