Encoding

One of the simplest ways to improve your security is through the use of encoded cards.
Magnetic stripes cards are the simplest and least durable, because the stripe is susceptible to wear over time. There are two encoding methods HiCo and LoCo. HiCo cards are made with a stronger magnetic field for more durability, making them useful for cards with a longer life. Examples: door access cards and employee ID cards. LoCo cards use a lower intensity magnetic field, but are best for short-term applications where they may need to be recoded often, example: weekend pass or hotel room key.

Lamination and Holograms

Thick or thin lamination for your cards as can be expected, the thicker films will usually last longer than thin film. Some of our PVC printer models offer lamination in addition to the standard printing and encoding capabilities. At the most basic level, lamination is designed to add a protective coating for long-term use of your cards.

Software and Connectivity

Id card printers are generally used as part of an integrated system with software and potentially multiple users. Ethernet is the next step up and allows for direct networking of printers to a network, allowing multiple users on different computers, and possibly in different locations and also Wi-Fi or wireless connectivity is the most popular connective method these days that eliminates the need for cables and all the ugly looking mess.
