Choosing A PVC Badge Printer: |
|
PVC Printer Model Considerations:
- Determine how many cards will be printed per year? (Less then 100 - entry level: 100-1000 - moderate level; 1000+ top of the line)
- Will the ID badge be used in a system reader: RFID, barcode, magnetic stripe applications? (Encoders and Lamination Required)
- Does your badge need to last more than 12 months if swiped in a reader? (Lamination Required)
- Can your organization go 10 business days without a badge printer? (most entry level printers do not have loaner warranty option)
|
|
PVC Printer Options to consider:
- Duplex Printing Module: the back of your badge is a highly visable message board.
- Lamination Module: make your badges last for years with highly durable over-laminates.
- Magnetic Encoder Module: encode secure high coercivity magnetic stripes as needed.
- Ethernet Communication Port: share your badge printer like any other networkable printer in your user group
- Reverse Transfer Printing: Using High definition printing, this is the technolgy of choice for RFID and smart cards.
