Developed specifically to meet the unique needs of healthcare providers, Zebra’s reliable HC100 Patient I.D. Solution makes wristband printing easier and more cost-effective than laser solutions. This solution combines the reliable HC100 direct thermal printer with easy-to-load cartridges containing Zebra’s durable Z-Band® wristbands. Minimal training! Pop the wristband cartridge into the HC100 printer—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 wristband size—adult, pediatric, infant—and automatically calibrates its settings for optimal print quality.
