Zebra ( formerly Eltron ) P520 color ID card printers and badge printers, including employee or student ID and gift cards.
P520 PVC plastic color card printers - Robust, high-speed card printer designed to quickly produce ISO flat cards for high durability and secure applications. The P520 features an all metal enclosure that houses a fast field-proven print engine, and heavy-duty fourth generation card laminator performance tuned for the P520 print engine.

A user-friendly LCD display indicates unit status, settings and maintenance functions. Control buttons allow quick, easy access to menu options. The card feeder cover can be opened during operation to reload cards for continuous production.
Other advanced features include automatic ribbon and laminate synchonization, an in-line cleaning cartridge, optional magnetic encoding and/or Smart Card contact stations, a reject hopper for cards that fail encoding, and both Centronics and USB interfaces.
