Why are ID card printers so expensive?

ID card printers are expensive as they use bespoke components and technology that make them more expensive to purchase than your everyday inkjet printer at home. This different printing technique, plus parts and consumables mean costs are also increased.

How do plastic card printers work?

Plastic card printers work by printing bespoke ID card designs directly onto the surface of the card. This usually involves a mixture of temperature and pressure depending on the technology the printer uses. Most printers use either direct-to-card or reverse transfer (retransfer). You can find out more about how they work here.
