Introducing Zebra’s Revolutionary
HC100™ Patient I.D. Solution
Bar coded wristband printing made easy and cost effective
Have you thought about what laser wristband printing is really costing you?
At first glance, laser may seem like an adequate print technology for
wristbands. But, in reality, the hidden costs as well as staff inefficiencies
and frustrations add up fast:
- With laser, the adhesive backing on the wristband and label forms can
ooze and cause performance problems for the printer. This leads to increased
help desk calls and higher maintenance costs.
- Laser toner is expensive, and more toner is used to print high-density bar
codes than plain text.
- Laser wristband printing can be time consuming and labor intensive. With
some laser bands, the staff must load forms into a special tray, print labels,
apply a label to the band, and then fold a laminate coating over the band to
protect the bar code image.
- • Many laser forms include extra wristbands and labels that are not needed and
must be destroyed under HIPAA guidelines.
Zebra’s new HC100 Patient I.D. Solution overcomes all of these obstacles. Now
your hospital staff can produce and attach a long-lasting, antimicrobial-coated
thermal wristband in just two steps. No wasted time with the cumbersome
wristband assembly many laser solutions require. No jammed laser printers. No
toner. No ribbon. It’s that simple.
Introducing the HC100 Patient I.D. Solution: an easy and cost-effective way to improve patient safety
This all-in-one print solution combines the reliable HC100 direct thermal
printer with easy-to-load cartridges containing the only antimicrobialcoated
wristbands on the market—Zebra’s Z-Band® wristbands.
There’s minimal training required! Pop the wristband cartridge
into the printer and the HC100 automatically detects the wristband
size, immediately calibrates, and prints. You get long-lasting
wristbands with bar codes that remain scannable for longer than
the average patient stay. When the cartridges are empty, return
them for recycling.
For optimal printing quality and proper printer performance, the
HC100 printer is designed to work only with cartridges of genuine
Zebra™ Z-Band wristbands.
Zebra partners with the leading Admissions Discharge Transfer
(ADT) software providers to enable hospitals’ easy integration of our
wristband print solutions.
For added peace of mind and a cost-effective way to plan for your
annual maintenance expenditures, protect your investment with a
ZebraCare™ service agreement.
Patient safety starts at the wrist
Zebra’s HC100 Patient I.D. Solution accommodates our entire
line of white and color Z-Band wristbands—both Z-Band Direct
with an adhesive tab and Z-Band QuickClip™ with clip closure—in
infant, pediatric and adult sizes. Bar codes on Z-Band wristbands
are proven to withstand water, soaps, foams, alcohol and other
common solvents found in a healthcare environment and remain
scannable for longer than the average patient stay.
For added patient protection, Z-Band wristbands are the only
bands on the market to feature our patent-pending antimicrobial
coating. Independent lab tests have shown this coating protects
the wristband against S. aureus, E. coli, P. aeruginosa, and MRSA Type II, III, and IV
—the leading causes of hospital infections.
Z-Band additionally meets the patient I.D. guidelines of the American Hospital
Association, the Joint Commission and the Health Insurance Portability and
Accountability Act (HIPAA).
Choose the HC100 Patient I.D. Solution for a lower total cost of ownership than laser
The HC100 Patient I.D. Solution uses thermal print technology, which in the long run
saves time and money over laser printing.
- Avoid the wasted wristbands and labels that come
with laser printing. With the HC100, you print
wristbands as needed. And the HC100 automatically
calibrates to the wristband size.
- Laser printing requires expensive toner, and printing
bar codes uses more toner than printing plain text.
With the direct thermal HC100, there’s no toner and
no ribbons.
- Wristbanding with the thermal HC100 Patient I.D.
Solution is considerably less labor intensive than with
most laser wristband solutions. Zebra’s solution requires two simple steps—print
the wristband and place it on the patient. Many laser solutions require six or
seven steps to print and assemble the bands.
- With laser, the adhesive backing on the wristband and label forms can ooze
and cause performance problems for the printer. This leads to increased help
desk calls and higher maintenance costs.
