The IDP 654229 adds contactless smart card encoding to IDP SMART-32 direct-to-card printers. Built on the OK5122 reader, it encodes ISO 14443 Type A/B, MIFARE, DESFire and iCLASS cards, for access control badges.
For the SMART-52, IDP's contactless encoder is the 654235. If your site also runs 125 kHz proximity cards, see the 900714 dual-frequency encoder. Contact us with the printer's serial number before ordering for a printer you already own.
