When printing badges for an event, it’s common to make changes and edits always need to be made at the last minute. Badges and name tags are vital to the success of an event or conference. Instead of printing out badges and name tags before the event, why not rent badge printers for events instead?

Not only will an onsite event badge printer help alleviate some prep work, but it also allows you to make last-minute edits. Rent a badge printer for your next event or conference to make quick edits to the spelling of names and add real-time photos to the badge for extra security. 

Badge printers can connect to various devices, making them easy to use for last-minute changes. Onsite badge printers also allow your event or conference to level up in technology and professionalism. Learn more about choosing the right badge printer for your next event. 

Paper Badge Printers

Many conferences use paper badges that can be directly used or easily slipped into a badge holder. Users can wear them in lanyards or clipped holders that attach to pockets. These badges are easy to print and offer black, color, and thermal ink color options.

Epson Colorworks C3500

For full-color paper badge printing, choose the Epson Colorworks C3500. This is a great way to make paper badges stand out with full scope color in an on-demand atmosphere. The Epson Colorworks C3500 printer does require ink cartridges and has an overall medium footprint.

Star-Micronics Thermal Printer

This new addition to the paper badge printing world offers a Bluetooth connection for easy use without all of the cables.
