Everything you need to print your first card the day it arrives.
The flagship of the A-Series. The A40 Pro prints with twice the vertical resolution of standard ID printers — finer text, sharper QR codes, more lifelike photos, and a card finish that looks like it came from a high-end credential bureau. The choice when the card is the brand.
Designed for first-time card makers. Pre-made templates, drag-and-drop layout, and a clean interface get you printing in minutes. Activation code emailed within 15 minutes of purchase — no disks, no waiting, no risk of lost media.
Compact, lightweight, and quiet enough to live on any desk. Ships fully loaded with the Bodno A5300 YMCKO Color Ribbon (300 prints) and everything you need to start printing immediately — no extra orders to chase, no setup headaches, no surprise add-ons.
Bodno manufactures its A-Series ID card printers and supplies and develops Bodno ID Card Software. Every A-Series printer is supported and protected by the Bodno team, with lifetime help with your software and a real person on the line when you need one.
The A40 Pro is the only A-Series printer that ships with Bodno TotalCare™ at no additional cost — 5 years of full parts-and-labor coverage, priority tech support, annual remote training, loaner printer during repairs (avg. turnaround under 3 business days), and overnight priority delivery both ways on eligible repairs. Your Bodno Bronze Edition license is a lifetime license for the life of this printer, and it can be moved to a new computer.
The add-ons Bodno A40 Pro customers order most, so you are ready on day one.

When the card is the brand — university IDs, hotel staff, hospital credentials, executive access — flagship resolution matters. The Bodno A40 Pro delivers true photo-quality 300 × 600 dpi dual-sided output, the highest in the A-Series.
The Bundle: Bodno A40 Pro ID Card Printer with Bodno Bronze Edition Software — a complete, professional ID card printing solution in one box. 300 × 600 dpi dual-sided printing powered by Bodno Bronze Edition software, with Bodno TotalCare™ included.
The Printer: True 300 × 600 dpi dual-sided output — twice the vertical resolution of standard 300 × 300 dpi printers. Sharper text, crisper QR and 2D barcodes, more lifelike photos, and a card surface that signals premium. The flagship of the Bodno A-Series.
The Software: Bodno Bronze Edition is the friendliest way into ID card design. Pre-made templates, drag-and drop layout tools, and a clean interface mean anyone on your team can produce professional cards on day one — no design background required. Your activation code arrives by email within 15 minutes of purchase.
Protection & Coverage: The A40 Pro is the only A-Series printer that ships with Bodno TotalCare™ at no additional cost — 5 years of full parts-and-labor coverage, annual remote training, annual printer health check, priority tech support, loaner printer during repairs (average turnaround under 3 business days), and overnight priority delivery both ways on eligible repairs. There is no need to add TotalCare separately. Your Bodno Bronze Edition software license is a lifetime license: it is valid for the life of this printer and can be moved to a new computer.
