What is a card printer? – A card printer is an electronic device with an internal mechanism for aligning plastic cards to different points within the card printer. To work through the steps With a device to convert electrical energy into heat energy The heat generator, we call it “print head”, the main function of the printhead is to use heat energy to react with the film (Ribbon) to remove the color from the film and attach it on the card. In the card printer, there are 3 colors: Yellow, Magenta and Cyan mixed together to produce different colors. The difference between ink and film is
“Ink will be liquid. Its usage depends on the number of colors used.”
“Film (Ribbon) is solid, comes in the form of a film, divided into 5 channels: Y (yellow), M (magenta), C (cyan), K (black) and T (topcoat). Times regardless of how many or less of the color on the card face You will always lose one set of film (all 5 slots) by mixing color, black print, and laminate.
The card printer is also divided into two types of printing technology:
1) Direct to card is to print directly on the card. Suitable for printing photos of name cards that do not need to be printed in full color due to the fact that the print head must be pressed directly on the card. Will leave approximately 0.5 mm edge space left
2) Retransfer is to print on clear film before heat is applied to roll the finished printed film onto the card. This makes the work that comes out to get full color, then the color will be more realistic since it is the heat rolled down the film first.

From the article that came above We hope you will understand the meaning of the word What is a card printer? In order to understand and choose a card printer to work properly Choosing a card printer depends on how the cards are printed. If it is a card with a background, Direct to card is preferable as it prints only images and letters. However, if the card doesn’t have a background, it’s better to use a Retransfer because it will produce a realistic, full background color. The resolution depends on the image used in printing. Because the card printer has a sharpness of 300 – 1200 dpi
