HC100 Wristband Printer

SG World's new HC100 wristband printer enables you to produce wristbands for school trips quickly and easily.  The wristband printer makes it easier for missing children to be returned to the group as quickly as possible.  

• Print your own wristbands at the touch of a button

• Change the wristband details as required for different trips

• Incorporate images, barcodes and multiple lines of text in to your wristband such as school name, logo, mobile contact numbers, anything you like!

The wristband printer is so easy to use, simply pop the wristband cartridge in to the printer and the HC100 autotmatically detects the wristband size, calibrates and prints.

The HC100 wristband printer is a thermal printer that doesn't require toner or printer ribbons saving both money and the environment.

Wristband Printer Cartridges are available separately

 

Wristband Software

The HC100 wristband printer comes with software to design your wristbands as standard.

An advanced version of the software is also available at extra cost that gives the advantage of being able to print direct from a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet which works in a similar way to mail merge in a Microsoft Word document.  The benefit of this is that you can print multiple wristbands instantly with different information saving you time printing each one individually.
