Setting new standards in card printing!
Zenius is the one-stop solution to print high-quality
single-sided cards, in monochrome or color, and encode technology
cards, singly or in runs, for a variety of applications:
Zenius comes with two major innovations :
-
Evolis Premium Suite®
, software, at the core of all new Evolis printers. This
software architecture supplies the Print Center, a printing and
configuration system that monitors all communications between the
printer and the user.
The printer’s operation can be managed entirely right from the user’s
interface and through pop-up notifications on the printing status,
ribbon availability and maintenance tasks.
This Printer Manager also offers direct access to the Evolis Web-based
Support Center, available on a 24/7 basis.
- The Evolis High Trust® range of
consumables
is specifically designed to deliver premium graphic
performances and ease of use. Installing the ribbon cassette is a
simple one-step process and thanks to a chip, Zenius instantly
identifies the ribbon type and configures all settings accordingly.
Zenius is available in two versions :
- The Classic line : USB only, no
encoding option – for those who only need to print cards on a single
computer
- The Expert line : USB and Ethernet, with
multiple encoding options available (factory mounted or on-site
integration) – for those who need to share their printer on a local
network or to issue badges with encoding technologies (mag, smart
contact and /or contactless
