Check-in Requirements

CAUTION:

Setting up check-in for the first time involves a few moving parts, and we want to help you get it right before investing in a lot of equipment. If you have questions or are unsure what equipment you need, please contact our support team at 1-800-669-2509, option 1 before making a large purchase. We are happy to help.

  • Badge printing requires a Windows or Mac computer with supported printer and software drivers installed. You must also download and install the latest version of QZ.
  • Tablets and iPads can be used for check-in, but they cannot print badges on their own.
  • If you plan to use multiple check-in stations, make sure your network can handle the additional devices. A network that works well for everyday use may slow down when several stations are running at the same time.
  • We recommend purchasing and testing one complete setup before buying equipment in bulk. This helps you confirm everything works together in your specific environment.
