PVC card printers and ID badge | Evolis Range

What should I look for when buying an ID card printer?

Choosing the right ID card printer depends on your card printing needs, your expected print volume, and the level of durability, security, and personalization required. Whether you need to print employee badges, student cards, membership cards, visitor badges, loyalty cards, or secure identification cards, the right PVC card printer should help you produce high-quality cards quickly and reliably.

How does direct-to-card ID card printing work?

Direct-to-card printing is one of the most widely used technologies for personalizing PVC cards and ID badges. With this printing method, the card design is printed directly onto the surface of the card using a print head. It is a reliable and efficient solution for producing employee badges, student ID cards, membership cards, loyalty cards, visitor badges, and access control cards.

Direct-to-card or retransfer printing: which technology should you choose?

Direct-to-card card printers are ideal for standard PVC cards, employee badges, membership cards, loyalty cards, and everyday ID card printing. They offer a good balance between print quality, speed, ease of use, and cost-efficiency. Retransfer card printers are recommended when you need edge-to-edge printing, higher print resolution, enhanced card durability, or compatibility with different card materials.
