Our View of the Evolis Badgy 200
The Evolis Badgy 200 makes most sense for organisations that need a straightforward way to print occasional cards without investing in a higher-volume printer.
Its biggest strength is simplicity. The bundle includes the printer, card design software, first colour ribbon and first 100 blank cards, so there is very little additional equipment to work out before you start.
Its main limitation is capacity. The Badgy 200 is designed for small batches rather than regular production printing, so organisations expecting their card volumes to grow should compare it with higher-capacity printers before buying.
For a small business, club or reception desk producing a few cards at a time, however, it can be a very practical entry-level option.
Simple Card Printing for Small Batches
The Badgy 200 uses direct-to-card dye-sublimation printing to produce personalised plastic cards.
It can print up to approximately 95 full-colour cards per hour or 325 monochrome cards per hour, making it suitable for occasional printing rather than high-volume production.
The printer has a 25-card input hopper and 25-card output hopper, allowing small batches to be loaded rather than feeding each card individually.
Cards are printed single-sided automatically. If you need to print on both sides occasionally, you can manually turn the card over and feed it through the printer again.
Everything You Need to Start Printing
One of the main advantages of this bundle is that the essential consumables are already included.
The Evolis Badgy 200 ID Card Printer Bundle includes:
- Evolis Badgy 200 single-sided printer
- Evolis Badge Studio®+ card design software
- 100-print YMCKO full-colour ribbon
- 100 blank plastic cards
- USB cable
- Power supply
- Two-year manufacturer warranty
- Free UK delivery
That means you can begin designing and printing cards without having to work out which ribbon or cards you need for your first batch.
