Pre-print event badges

You can print guest badges before an event. When guests arrive, they can pick up their badges and scan the QR code to sign in faster.

Before you start

Keep the following information in mind before pre-printing event badges.

• Check that the printer has enough paper for all badges. The printer does not alert you when it runs out of paper.
• Make sure the kiosk is available. Badge printing does not start if the kiosk is busy.

• Pre-printing event badges will always use the style 5 badge template.

  Tip:

  Site admins can turn on "Reprint Event Badges" to reissue badges using your site’s default style. With this setting turned on, after a guest scans the QR code on their pre-printed badge, a new badge in the default style will print. For more information, see Set up event badges to reprint.

   Tip:
