Staff cards
Create cards for new staff and replace existing cards when names, photos or other details change.
In-house card production
From card design to on-site printing

Checks before printing
Check every job before printing
CR80 checks that card designs and any encoding requirements are compatible with the configured printer, its options and materials. Printing requires a printer supported by CR80.
Cards for your organisation
Issue cards where they are needed
Membership cards
Use a shared design and personalise each card with the member's name, photo and membership details.
Visitor cards
Add the visitor's details and photo when issuing a card on site.
How it works
One connected workflow
Work with designs, individual details and printing in the same project. Previews and printed cards use the same dimensions and layout.
Design your cards
Create the front and back with text, images and codes. Set positions and sizes in millimetres.
Add individual details
Enter names and other details or import them from a spreadsheet. Add photos and preview the cards.
Check before printing
CR80 checks that the print job is compatible with the printer's features, ribbon and card material.
Print your cards
Track the result for each card. Any required encoding takes place before printing. If encoding fails, that card is not printed.
What you need
Get your card printer ready for CR80
Support depends on both the printer model and its installed options. Check that CR80 supports the equipment and features you plan to use.
A supported printer
Check your model's support status before you begin. It shows which features you can use with CR80.
Options for your cards
Double-sided printing, encoding and lamination require the appropriate printer options and support in CR80.
Ribbon and card material
Specify the ribbon and cards loaded in the printer. CR80 uses these details to check that the materials are suitable for the job.
CR80 Print Station
Install CR80 Print Station on the computer connected to your printer. It connects the printer to CR80 and manages the print queue.
