Datacard SD160 Overview
– Printing Capability: Single-sided
– Print Technology: Dye sublimation
– Print Speed: Full color single-sided cards in 24 seconds
– Input/Output Hopper: 100/25
The Datacard SD160 is an entry-level ID card printer with powerful features including UV printing for increased card security.
Well-organized Card Printing
Printing 150 full-color cards each hour (and 500 monochrome cards each hour), the SD160 ID card printer is a powerful single-sided ID card printer.
If your industry will only do low volume ID card printing, the SD160 comes with a 100-card input hopper and low yield ribbons. But if you need to print more cards in a run, upgrade to the larger 200-card input hopper and 100-card output hopper.
And if your organization wants to print basic cards with reduced waste, the SD160 offers rewritable card printing. This feature comes built-in, and just requires specialized rewritable cards.
Secure ID Cards
The Datacard SD160 is capable of UV printing, using special ribbons with a shining panel in calculation to the standard YMCK panels. UV printing is a joint security quantity, used to check cards by security because the printing only shows up under black lights.
Also, the SD160 has an elevation to include magnetic stripe encoding. This allows you to encode and store data on the card, often used for employee or student ID cards, membership cards, and cashless payment cards.
Printer Options & Upgrades
The SD160 comes with these printer options:
– Magnetic stripe encoding (upgrade)
– Rewritable card printing
