Choosing an ID card printer can be difficult, particularly if you’ve never purchased one before. Despite the huge amount on offer, there are only two main types of technology: direct-to-card (aka DTC) and retransfer (aka reverse transfer).
In this guide, we’ll be dealing with direct-to-card printers. We’ll talk you through how they work, how they compare to retransfer printers, their benefits and limitations, as well as considering who they are best for.
Deciding if you require a retransfer ID card printer rather than a direct-to-card printer is the most important point for consideration before you purchase a card printing machine.
We’ve taken some of the most common queries we get from customers considering upgrading from a direct-to-card machine and put them all in one place.
