Zenius

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:

• employee badges,
• access control badges,
• payment cards,
• transportation passes,
• and more...

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.
  he 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.
