IDenticard and I&A SMART Printer

The SMART printer, available in versions for single-sided or dual-sided printing, is a compact, lightweight ID card printer that is packed with user convenience features, includes customer-friendly software tools, and provides the optional ability to encode magnetic stripe, or contact or contactless chip cards.


The SMART printer weighs about 10 pounds (12 pounds in the dual-sided version) and measures about 7 by 8 by 17 inches. The printer's rugged design includes front-in and front-out card hoppers, two-button operation, a two-line LCD display showing real-time process status, and a convenient, semi-cartridge-type ribbon and cleaning roller. Print speed is a maximum of 25 seconds per card to produce superior print quality using dye sublimation/resin thermal transfer printing in color or monochrome, including fluorescent printing for quality and security.


The SMART printer's GUI ensures convenience using design Wizards and templates, and customer-oriented software tools include a card printer setup utility, a card printer test utility and a card printer firmware utility. The exclusive card issue design and encoding tool is compatible with Microsoft programs such as Excel, Word and PowerPoint and with Adobe Photoshop.
