  • Evolis Tattoo2 Prints on Demand and on the Go  By : Daisy McCarty
    The Tattoo2 is an excellent choice for entry level ID card printing. This cost effective model offers a straightforward option for users who don't require complex encoding capabilities. Instead, bar coding can be performed using monochrome ribbon at a speed of less than 10 seconds per card. This type of data management program may be simple, but it is far from outdated. A hand held or stationary reader will work with the standard bar code fonts available in most versions of ID printing software. Applications that track usage (such as membership/loyalty cards) can make use of colorful pre-printed PVC cards. The bar code can simply be printed on the reverse side along with any other identifying information.
  • Get it Right with the Datacard SP25 Plus Printer  By : Daisy McCarty
    The Datacard SP25 printer makes it easy to keep ID badge information current without the hassle of buying and issuing more cards every time you need to make a change. Instead, this model uses thermal technology to erase and reprint the same cards as many times as needed. This rewrite capability makes it possible to establish and manage a unique enrollment program. Not only can encoded data on a mag stripe be updated, but the printed image and text can also be changed at any time.
  • Versatility is Key for the Datacard SP55 Plus  By : Daisy McCarty
    The Datacard SP55 is a mid-range ID printer that offers a broad array of features. It is an excellent solution for businesses that require flexibility in card creation. This full color model is available in both single and dual sided versions. Reloading the cards to print the second side isn’t necessary since the equipment uses an automatic turnover station. This inline process is still quite fast (up to 155 full color cards per hour). Having the ability to print extra data on the back of each card is a plus for many enrollment programs. This additional space is often used to show signatures and a small, monochrome copy of the ID photo to enhance badge security.
  • Datacard SP35 Makes ID Card Enrollment Easy  By : Daisy McCarty
    When it comes to user friendly features, the Datacard SP35 Plus has something for everyone. This single sided printer is designed to make the entire card creation process uncomplicated.

The desk space required for this unit is minimal since the input and output hoppers are both accessibly located on the front of the machine.
  • Bargain Basement Prices On Datacard RP90  By : Daisy McCarty
    Datacard Group is replacing the standard RP90 ID card printer with their new Plus version. The opportunity to obtain one of the older models is hard to pass up.

These unique circumstances make it possible for businesses to do something really unusual - upgrade to a discontinued product. This is because the machine in question is a reverse transfer printer. Many companies settle for a simple direct-to-card device to save up front costs; but the steep discounts on this unit bring it easily within reach for even a modest budget.

  • Evolis Introduces the Badgy ID Card Printer  By : Daisy McCarty
    The name for this new ID card printer from Evolis may sound silly, but it really is simple enough for a kid to use. The Badgy is an entry-level printer designed for organizations that create fewer than 2,000 cards per year. It comes with a ribbon, software CD, and the first 100 cards included. For the design process, end users don't have to upload their own background images. There is a full online library with free templates available for download. The artwork ranges from business to sports applications and beyond. U.S. customers will be amused to see rugby images featured prominently while football pictures are nowhere to be found. They do, however, have several templates available for chess clubs and wine tasting events. Of course, you can switch out the picture on any of these templates if you would still like to use the rest of the design.
  • Meet the QuikCard ID Card Printing Package from Zebra  By : Daisy McCarty

  • ID Printers with Lamination Features  By : Daisy McCarty
    Many of today's ID printer manufacturers offer topcoat ribbons to add a varnish layer to cards. However, for maximum protection it is recommended to finish IDs with a full thickness laminate instead. Tests have shown that a simple varnish overcoat can be stripped using chemicals. This allows the data and text on the surface of the card to be manipulated. With actual lamination, any attempt to remove the top layer will destroy the surface underneath. This makes tampering immediately obvious. Thicker versions also deliver UV protection and scratch resistance. Holographic varieties are even more secure and offer an attractive, eye catching appearance.
  • DataCard ID Printer Industry Advancements  By : Daisy McCarty

  • Zebra ID Printers Feature New UHF RFID  By : Daisy McCarty

This allows mid to high volume end users to perform on-site UHF card creation for the first time.

Now, the technology is available on both the P330i (R3i) and P430i (R4i) color printers as an option. The cost for both of these models is still in the mid-range, even with the advanced UHF module and Ethernet connection included.

  • Reverse Transfer Printers Overview  By : Daisy McCarty
    Reverse transfer printers are some of the best ID card delivery systems on the market today. They combine high definition dye sublimation and resin ink printing with film transfer application for a flawless result. While regular direct-to-card technology works for many basic print jobs, it can destroy delicate access/data devices such as proximity and smart chip cards. In contrast, reverse film printing applies the selected image to a transparent sheet of plastic. This is then expertly bonded to the card surface without causing any damage. Lamination can also be formatted to stop at the edge of exposed smart chips to give durability to the card without compromising the interface. Full bleed (edge-to-edge) printing at 300 dpi delivers crisp photo replication as well.
