Choosing the right name badge and corresponding badge paper suitable for your printer is essential for a smooth registration process and also to ensure a professional appearance.
We are happy to help you make the right choice.
What type of printer do you have?
Laser printer
Laser printers are known for their fast and sharp prints, ideal for printing names legibly. Laser printers use a lot of heat. All of our badge paper and Butterfly badges are a good choice for laser printing.
Recommended badges:
- All badge holders with us for perforated badge paper, A-4 size sheets.

Inkjet printer
Inkjet printers are popular for their versatility and sharp print quality, especially when printing colors. If you use an inkjet printer, we recommend that you choose badge paper made specifically for inkjet technology. This paper has a special coating that ensures the ink dries quickly and does not bleed.
Recommended badges:
- All badge holders with us for perforated paper, A-4 size sheets.
- Butterfly badges item number: ML-75.03 for all small office inkjet printers, for example.
- All zig zag folded badges for Inkjet printers, for example Epson model 3500 and 4000.
Thermal printers
Thermal printers are ideal for printing directly on the name badge, without the use of a toner or ink. This type of printer is great for quick and easy processing of name badges, often used at large-scale events.
Printers, for example, from the Zebra brand.
Recommended badges:
- Thermal badges: our Badge Zcards, as we call them, in various sizes.
Important tips when choosing badge paper
- Always use badge paper made specifically for your type of printer to ensure the best results.
- Choose the right thickness: Thinner paper may be suitable for one-time use, while thicker paper offers a more professional look and lasts longer.
- Before you print a large run, it is wise to do a test print first to verify that the badges look as expected.
Choosing the right combination of printer, name badge, and badge paper will ensure that your conference or event runs professionally and efficiently.
