Retransfer ID card printers (also known as reverse transfer plastic card printers) are the best choice for printing high volumes of exceptional quality, ultra-secure ID cards with photo-like imagery.
Using unique retransfer technology, retransfer printers first print the design onto a transparent film, which is then bound to the ID card using a combination of heat and pressure. This unique printing technology creates a more secure, high-quality ID card that is less susceptible to wear and tear, with cards printed using a retransfer machine 3 times more durable than those printed with a standard card printer.
Retransfer printing machines tend to be more expensive than direct-to-card printers, however offer much more value, delivering a higher quality print result and over-the-edge printing for a truly professional-looking card.
