Visitor Badge Printing Software

What is visitor badge printing?

Visitor badge printing is the automatic printing of a name badge when a visitor checks in. In YAROOMS, the digital reception app sends each badge to a Brother QL-820NWBc label printer as check-in completes. Badges use your template, logo and company name, and show details such as the visitor name, visitor type and check-in time.

See it in action

Take a quick tour of visitor management and see how visitors check in, get a badge and reach their host.

Automatic printing

Every checked-in visitor leaves reception with a badge

The badge prints as the last step of check-in. Walk-in guests register on the tablet. Pre-registered guests scan the QR code from their invitation email. Both routes end with a printed badge and a host notification.

Prints at check-in

The badge prints as soon as check-in completes, with no action from reception staff.

Walk-in and pre-registered visitors

Guests who registered in advance scan their invitation QR code. Guests without a code register on screen.

Switched on per location

Turn on Print badge at the Confirmed step of each location’s visitor registration flow.

Badge design

Badges carry your logo and the visitor details you choose

Each reception device has its own badge template, set on the device's Badges tab under Visitor Management, Reception. Every badge printed on that device uses the same size, logo and company name.

The fields you choose

Visitor name or initials, visitor type, email, check-in date and time, plus your logo and company name. Headings print larger than body lines.

Five badge sizes

62 x 100 mm, 62 x 90 mm or 62 x 43 mm labels, in black or in red and black.

Badge printing is part of the YAROOMS workplace platform

Badge printing runs in YAROOMS Digital Reception, the kiosk app of YAROOMS Visitor Management. The same platform covers desk and room booking, digital signage, parking and service requests.

The visit, the badge and the host notification share one record in the visitor log. YAROOMS works with Microsoft 365 and Outlook. It runs as SaaS, in your own Azure or AWS tenant, or on-premise, and it is ISO 27001 certified and SOC 2 Type II audited.

Visitor badge printing: FAQ

Yes. A badge prints as soon as check-in completes on the reception tablet, with no action from reception staff. An administrator turns this on per location: go to Visitor Management → Settings → Edit location → Visitor Registration Flow, open the Confirmed step and switch on Print badge.

Connect the Brother QL-820NWBc to your Wi-Fi, then enter its IP address in YAROOMS:

  1. On the printer, find the Direct Mode IP address and password in the Wi-Fi menu.
  2. Connect a laptop to the printer's Direct Mode network and open that IP address in a browser.
  3. Under Network → Wireless, join your office Wi-Fi network.
  4. Note the Infrastructure Mode IP address from the printer's Wi-Fi status menu.
  5. In YAROOMS, go to Visitor Management → Reception, select the reception device, open its Badges tab and enter that IP in the Printer IP field.

How to enable badge printing and set up your printer →

A badge can show the visitor's full name, first or last name, initials, visitor type, email, and the check-in date and time. It also carries your logo and company name. You arrange these fields line by line in the badge template.

Yes. Open Visitor Management → Reception, select the reception device and open its Badges tab. There you set the badge template, the badge size, your logo and your company name, and YAROOMS shows a live preview. Each reception device can have its own badge design. Bulk badge PDFs use the same template, so pre-printed badges match the ones printed at check-in.

Yes. On the Visitor Management dashboard, filter to the group, select the visitors and click Print badges. YAROOMS creates one PDF with one badge per page. Bulk printing is available in locations where badge printing is on. Visitors with a pending registration cannot be selected, because their details may be incomplete.

Yes. Correct the details, then print the badge again from the visit's side panel, or select the visitor on the dashboard and click Print badges. You can send badges to a reception device's printer or open them as a PDF. You can regenerate a batch at any time, or select only late additions to print a follow-up PDF.

No. The visitor checks in on the tablet and the badge prints without staff action. The host gets a notification at the same time. A staffed desk can also keep the printer behind the counter and hand badges to visitors.
