The ID badge software uses the normal Windows™ printing system and therefore any printer supported by Windows™ can be used. However, there are considerations when deciding which printer to use with the ID badge software. In general you should select a printer capable of at least 300DPI resolution. The resolution of the printer will directly affect the quality of the photographs and graphics used on the badge.
Color badges can be printed on a wide variety of inkjet and dye transfer printers. There are also printers available to print in color directly on plastic stock.
Black and white badges can be printed on laser or inkjet printers. Better results are usually obtained when these printers have a resolution of at least 600DPI because of the information lost by not displaying the colors. The quality of the photographs will be dependent upon the capability of the printer and its software driver to render the color image to black and white. This capability varies widely between printer brands and models.
