Card printers are capable of instantly compelling, high –quality payment cards and print secure ID cards that maximize cardholder satisfaction.

Though there are wide ranges of card printers available, it can be divided into three main types:

·         Near to Edge: These types of card printers are the cheapest. These printers print up

    to 5mm from the edge of the card stock.

·         Direct to Card: Direct to Card (also known as Edge to Edge card printer) is where the

   print-head comes in direct contact with the card. This printing type is the most popular

   today because of the cost factor of the printer.

·         Reverse Transfer: Reverse transfer (Also known as High Definition Printing or Over

   the Edge Printing) print-head prints to a transfer film backwards and then the printed

   film is rolled onto the card with intense heat.
