Dual-Sided color Card Printer with Built-in Laminator Provides Fast, Easy Production of Long-life Plastic Cards

The P520i is a robust, high-speed card printer designed to quickly produce ISO flat cards for high durability and secure applications. The P520i features an all metal enclosure that houses a fast field-proven print engine, and heavy-duty forth generation Lx4 card laminator performance tuned for the P520i print engine. The P520i is ideal for producing:

  • Secure Facility Access Control and Auto-ID cards
  • Law Enforcement & Correction Facility ID cards
  • Driver Licences and Government ID cards
  • Student Identification and Time & Attendance cards

Laminating considerably increases card life and durability. Lamination can prolong card life by 2 to 5 additional years when compared to non-laminated cards under similar conditions.  The P520i printer/laminator is ultra-quiet and fast, printing and laminating up to 125 cards per hour. It is designed to print and laminate both sides of a card for dual-sided applications.

A user-friendly LCD display indicates unit status, settings and maintenance functions. Control buttons allow quick, easy access to menu options. The card feeder cover can be opened during operation to reload cards for continuous production.

Other advanced features include automatic ribbon and laminate synchonization, an in-line cleaning cartridge, optional magnetic encoding and/ or Smart Card contact stations, a reject hopper for cards that fail encoding, and both

 and USB interfaces. Windows™ drivers, compatible with Windows NT, 98, ME, XP, 2000, provide convenient plug and play operation.

All Eltron card printers are manufactured to ISO 9001 standards and available from authorized distributors and value-added resellers in over 90 countries worldwide.
