Innovative Design Improvements

A new, patent-pending card feeder system provides reliability via simplicity, using the weight of the card stack itself to ensure consistent feeding. The Eltron P330i supports the range of card thickness used worldwide, printing on cards as thin as 10-mil or as thick as 60-mil proximity cards. The new design allows the card feeder capacity to be increased from 100 cards to 220 cards (30-mil) with the simple addition of two plastic extension pieces and three screws. This option increases user efficiency, reducing the need for user interaction. Users can load up to 200 cards at a time without having to stop the printing process.

Auto Adjusting Printerhead
The Zebra Eltron P330i’s new, patent-pending printhead assembly has been redesigned with a “floating gimbal” action that automatically adjusts to uneven card surfaces, delivering a more consistent image across the card. For user convenience, the new assembly provides easier ribbon loading and printhead cleaning.

Different encoders for better card security
A number of encoding options are available with the Zebra Eltron P330i. Magnetic stripe encoding and a smart card encoding station will be available as factory-installed options. With these options, users can encode magnetic stripes and encode/read three types of smart card technology: ISO 7816 contact smart chips (the most common contact smart card standard), MIFARE ® and iCLASS ® contactless smart chips.

In addition to the USB interface included in all configurations of the Zebra Eltron P330i, Zebra also offers built-in Ethernet connectivity as a factory-installed or field upgradeable option. Based on a next-generation 10Base-T/100Base-TX design, the printer can be administered remotely from any location using ZebraNet ® Print Server utility software. In the future, “one-cable” encoding will be offered via Ethernet, allowing remote printing and remote encoding.

LCD display quickly and easier tells you what's going on
User convenience features include an LCD display, translucent covers for print viewing and a patented cleaning cartridge. Advanced RFID technology makes Zebra Eltron P330i printer configuration quick and easy, with automatic ribbon type detection and correct setup for quality card printing. The integrated card output hopper slides back into the enclosure when not in use to avoid being lost or damaged.
