This future-proof printer handles diverse design needs and access control card printing, ensuring you won't need a replacement. Although it has a higher initial cost compared to DTC printers, the SMART 81 delivers a superior return on investment by producing higher quality, more durable cards, reducing the need for reprints and replacements, and leading to significant cost savings over time. 

    Rapid Print Speeds 

    Experience the industry's fastest "Ready to Print" time with IDP's RRP technology. Simply power-on the machine and be ready to print in seconds. A single-sided YMCK card takes just 25 seconds to print, and a dual-sided YMCKK card takes just 43 seconds, impressive. 

    Perfect Output Every Time

    Achieve unmatched print quality with the SMART-81. Printing in 300 DPI (dots per inch), each card has no white borders, showcases vibrant colours, sharp images, and full edge-to-edge coverage. The result is visually appealing, professional-looking cards that leave a positive impression on employees, visitors, and contractors. 

    Longer Lasting Cards 

    Each card is finished with an overlay which is thermally bonded onto the plastic card’s surface. This process ensures cards last longer and are proven to be more resistant to scratches, snapping and everyday abrasions. 

    Printing Prowess 

    The Smart 81 produces sharp, vivid, edge-to-edge images on various types of cards, including contactless and contact chip cards. Its advanced printing technology offers 600 x 300 dpi resolution for black text, ensuring that even the smallest details are clear and visible. This is particularly useful for cards with lots of information or intricate designs. Despite its compact size, the Smart 81 is robust and durable. It has been rigorously tested in our print bureau and passed with flying colours, ensuring reliable performance for your printing needs.

    Printer Longevity

    With Intelligent Anti-Dust Circulation, the Smart 81 ensures printer longevity. It features a fine dust filter and disposable cleaning roller to remove dust and particles for flawless printing quality. Additionally, its intelligent air circulation structure effectively controls the temperature during continuous card issuance. 

    Secure Printer, Secure Cards 

    The SMART-81 features an integrated physical and electronic locking system plus a robust bolt-down fixture to meet the stringent security requirements for high-level ID card issuance requirements. 

    For enhanced visual card security, the SMART-81 incorporates SmartMark technology. SmartkMark adds a watermark to the surface of each card by embedding a custom image into your cards during the final print stage. Combining physical and electronic security measures, the SMART-81 offers comprehensive protection for your ID program. 

    Different Cards, Same Results

    No matter what type of card you’ll be printing on, the SMART-81 produces graphical card designs seamlessly to the edges, even on smart cards with uneven surfaces. With complete design flexibility, it is particularly suited for customers requiring enhanced functionality and high security, including the government, banking, education, and hospitality sectors. 

    Compatibility
