The IDP SMART-32D with no display is a compact dual-sided ID card printer for low- to mid-volume printing, for IDs that need information on both sides: a photo on the front, and a barcode, policy text or emergency contacts on the back. It prints edge to edge at 300 dpi and weighs 8.4 lb.
The built-in flipper turns each card automatically. It prints up to 260 cards per hour with a YMCKO ribbon, up to 190 with a YMCKOK ribbon that puts color on the front and black on the back, and up to 720 monochrome. The 80-card hopper feeds into a removable 25-card output tray, and a single LED button handles front operation.
This is the print-only configuration with USB and built-in Ethernet and no LCD. IDP's 654403 kit adds a 2-line LCD with two LED buttons later. To encode cards, add a magnetic stripe, contact or contactless smart card encoder from the upgrades in the buy box; IDP installs the dual-frequency encoder at the factory, so choose it with the printer. Wi-Fi is available as an upgrade. IDP's SMART IDesigner card design software is included free (Windows, download). If you design on a Mac or print from a bigger database, ID-ALL is the step up; it supports IDP SMART printers on Windows and Mac.
