Each station has its own power supply and communication cables are provided to connect each station and synchronize their operation.

In addition, the Smart-70 features both USB and Ethernet connectivity, Windows and Mac operating system compatibility, and a three year manufacturer warranty.

Lamination for Added Durability

The Smart-70 printer comes with single or dual-sided lamination to add durability to your ID cards by applying a protective coat of laminate which shields you cards from the daily wear and tear of card use.

Along with protecting your cards from the elements, lamination also helps prevent fraudulent card tampering or reproduction. Lamination makes it harder to tamper with the cards because as the lamination film is peeled back the text and images are damaged. You can also use lamination film with holographic images to make your cards easily identifiable.

Smart-70 Laminating Printer Warranty

The IDP Smart-70 ID card printer comes with a three year manufacturer warranty, with a two year printhead warranty.
