Datacards Latest Printer Addition SD460

Datacard unveiled its latest direct to card printer called the SD460.  This direct to card printer will be replacing the durable and long tenured SP75 Plus.  Although many have been clamoring for a newer version of the SP75 Plus, there is no denying that the SP75 Plus was a workhorse and excellent direct to card and laminating printer.  While the first version of the SP75 was unsuccessful due to laminating module issues, the SP75 Plus fixed those issues and provided an industry with a stable direct to card and laminating printer.

The new SD460 printer is slated for availability in Q2 of 2014 and offers a variety of new features.  One such security feature is an industry first "Tactile Impression Die" that comes in generic or customizable designs.  After the printing process has been completed, the die is pressed into the card surface leaving a permanent impression of the die into the card.  The SD460 is based off the current SD260/360 printer line for the printing process whereas the laminating module is completely redesigned and new. Additional advanced features include easy load lamination supplies and the ability to use several types of protective coverings: DuraShield Overlay or DuraGard Laminate in .5 or 1.0 mil thicknesses.  Print & laminate speeds are an impressive 200 cards per hour as well.

Contact ColorID today to learn more about the latest addition from Datacard.  Unit will be available in Q2 of 2014.
