You can now operate your card printing program wirelessly with the Evolis Primacy, eliminating the need to place the printer next to a USB or a wired network connection! This convenience provides several benefits:

Cost savings: wireless printing enables on-site, on-demand printing with minimal IT infrastructure. It eliminates the expense, time, and hassle of adding or moving cables.

Increased productivity: wireless card printing increases employee productivity, allowing employees to print from anywhere in the facility.

Reduced clutter: no more cords! Plus, a printer’s cable length no longer dictates the printer’s placement.

The Primacy with WiFi option is available as a factory-installed option only. Contact an ID Wholesaler account manager at (800) 321-4405 for more details.

Everyone wants the best deal when they are making a purchase, whether it’s a car or running shoes. Thanks to the internet, we are savvy enough to make sure we are not paying too much.

With that being said, it’s natural to gravitate toward the least expensive ID card printer model. I am avoiding the word “cheapest ID card printer” here because nothing that ID Wholesaler carries is cheap! Every card printer we offer will suit someone’s application. While each printer varies in print quality and features, none of them are “cheap.” While the least expensive model may be a good fit for your needs, it may not be the best fit.

Evolis Zenius ID Card Printer

For example, Evolis offers the Badgy ID card printer, priced under $1,000. This is an option for select small businesses. One step up from this is the Zenius ID card printer. For only a few more hundred dollars you get much better print quality, larger ribbon yields, a better warranty, and more upgrade options. One thing the price tag will not tell you is that the Badgy also prints with a thicker unprinted border around the outside edge versus the standard 2 pixels.

What are you willing to sacrifice to save a few dollars?

Depending on your specific needs, if you can spring for one step up from the least expensive ID card printer, you will not be disappointed. However, you may be disappointed if you settle on something just because of the price tag. No matter how much you are spending, you need to make sure you getting the most for your money.

At ID Wholesaler, our goal is to develop a long-term relationship with you, our customer, and to partner with you to ensure a successful card printing program. Call an ID Professional today at (800) 321-4405 to discuss your needs. Chances are we can point something out that the price tag did not.

After a glorious run for a number of years, the Evolis Pebble and Dualys printer models are nearing their end of life. However, their successors are better than ever! 

Zenius
The Zenius Classic , which replaces the Pebble, is a basic, single-sided ID card printer without any encoding options. It’s companion, the Zenius Expert, is also a single-sided printer. Unlike the Classic, the Zenius Expert allows upgrading with encoding options. Both the Zenius Classic and Expert feature an all-new design, a choice of accent colors, a highly-intuitive user interface, and 2 year warranties.

Primacy
The Dualys has been followed-up with the new Primacy. Offering your choice of brilliant blue or fire red accent colors, Primacy also features an all-new design and can be purchased as either a single-sided or dual-sided printer. Primacy includes both USB and Ethernet connections standard, and offers a variety of card encoding upgrades, plus, it features a 3 year manufacturer warranty. In terms of features, price and warranty, the new Primacy is the more economical way to go!

What’s even better than just coming out with new models? Evolis is also offering trade in credits up to $300 with the purchase of a new Evolis Zenius or Primacy printer, through March, 2013.

To learn more about the new printers, give one of our ID Professionals a call at (800) 321-4405 x2.

The latest addition to the Evolis printer line-up is now available at ID Wholesaler! The new single- and dual-sided Evolis Primacy ID card printers feature a contemporary design that is available in two colors: fire red or brilliant blue.

Designed to meet the demands of mid- to high-volume card printing applications, the Evolis Primacy offers print speeds of  up to 210 full-color or 850 monochrome single-sided cards per hour, plus 100-card input and output hoppers to support this volume. While the printer is powerful, it’s also quiet and energy-efficient.

The Primacy is built to grow with you as your needs change. The modular design allows you to upgrade to dual-sided printing and/or card encoding – any time! – with a simple upgrade kit.

While the Primacy is loaded with features, it’s also easy to install, operate, and maintain. It offers cost-effective supplies, including ribbon saver technology and half-panel color ribbons. The system is backed by a 3-year manufacturer’s warranty. Optional extended warranty and loaner coverage plans are also available from ID Wholesaler.

To learn more about the new printer, visit the Evolis Primacy product page on IDWholesaler.com or call an ID Professional at (800) 321-4405.
