You can connect just about any computer system to your Eltron P500 printer.

The Eltron P500 is a now discontinued card printer. It is used primarily on account cards, such as driver's license and other forms of identification. If you have such a printer, it is possible to create employee documents or other information for your business. Once connected to your computer, it only takes a few moments to set up. However, you must stay by the card printer as it prints to remove the finished card and insert a new, blank one once the Eltron P500 is ready.
