Printing

Print from a phone or tablet

Once at least one workstation in your org is paired with the Print Agent installed, you can dispatch a print from any browser, including the one in your pocket, and the card comes out of the right printer.

Setup

  1. Make sure at least one workstation has the agent installed, paired, and is sharing its printers. See Share printers across workstations.
  2. On your phone, open BadgeBadger and sign in. Your account membership is what gates which printers you can see.

Printing

  1. Open the employee whose card you want to print.
  2. The Print button on the phone is the same as on the desktop. Tap it and the printer picker opens.
  3. Pick a printer. Since you’re on a phone (no local agent), every option in the picker is remote, labeled with the workstation that hosts it.
  4. Confirm in the “About to print on another computer?” dialog. The toast updates live: Queued → Printing → Done.

Kiosk mode

For self-serve photo capture (a staff lobby, a school visitor desk), open BadgeBadger’s built-in kiosk mode in a browser on a tablet: hq.badgebadger.app/kiosk. An employee types their ID, the kiosk looks them up, and they take a fresh photo or keep the one on file. The kiosk then makes their badge as a PDF and downloads it on the tablet.

Kiosk badges don’t print by themselves.The kiosk doesn’t send jobs to a paired workstation, so keep a staff member nearby to print the downloaded PDF, or to open the person’s record on a workstation and print it from there.
