Regardless of your industry, ID badge purpose, or security needs, there is a basic ID card printer bundle that covers all bases to help you create amazing employee ID cards. The basic ID card program includes these elements, and depending on your security and other needs, you can build from here.
Most reputable ID card printing solution providers offer several bundles to help you create a solution that meets your security and other needs in a single system. ID card bundles usually include anID card printer, software to create customized ID cards, PVC cards, and basic consumable supplies like optional smart cards, color ribbons, cleaning kits, and more.
Here's what you need to know about ID card printer bundles to meet or exceed your program's security and business needs.
Bundles are manufacturer-specific
Manufacturers make consumables like PVC cards, ribbons, cleaning kits, and more supplies specific to their brand and model. Comply with your printer's manufacturer warranty and boost your ID card printer's lifespan. Your best bet is to purchase your printer's manufacturer-approved cleaning kit and other consumable supplies.
For example, if you purchase a Fargo ID card printer, purchase ID card supplies tailored for your make and model ID card printer. Ribbons, PVC cards, cleaning kits, and more work specifically for your make and model printer. Using manufacturer-specified products helps you meet warranty specifications as well as ensure the manufacturer supports your printer with products customized for your printer.
When you purchase a Fargo (or other manufacturer) bundle, you know you're getting consumables and other products tailored for that brand and model printer. There's no guess work involved in their design because each component of the bundle works specifically with and for your ID card printer make and model.
Meet manufacturer specified warranty restrictions
Each ID card printer manufacturer specifies which parts and consumables are acceptable to help you meet your printer's specified warranty restrictions. For example, if you have a Datacard printer and use consumables like ribbons and cleaning kits from another manufacturer, you will most likely void your manufacturer's warranty.
If you want to comply with your ID card printer's warranty, only use the parts and consumables recommended by your printer's manufacturer. Over the long run, your ID card printer will function better and longer when you use the recommended parts, supplies, and consumables. Rather than focus on cost per unit, consider the future cost per repair if you don't stick with the manufacturer's recommendations.
