preprinted, smart or holographic cards.
Dual, auto-switching card input hoppers:
Accommodate up to 200 of the same type of
card, or 100-card stacks of different card
types in each hopper. The printer/encoder
automatically switches between the hoppers,
as needed.

Accepted Card Thickness:
Prints edge – to – edge onto standard
CR-80 cards from 10 mil to 50 mil thick.

prints up to 3,000 cards — far more
than competitive printers.
The long lasting, drop-in ribbons
let you print up to three times as many cards
as competitive printers.
Encoding: No other direct-to-card
printer can match the encoding capability
of the DTC 500 Series. Encodes/reads up to
three different e-card technologies, plus
magnetic stripes — all in a single pass!
It can print and encode standard-sized e-cards,
including contact and contactless smart cards,
and thick, “clamshell” proximity
cards (read only).

you view remaining card supply, while keeping
blank cards dust-free.
True Exception Card Feed
allows you to manually feed and print a single
card without interrupting printer/encoder
operation.
Adjustable Card Flattener
eliminates card bowing.
Reject Card Hopper: The DTC
525-LC identifies errors and sends incomplete
or improperly encoded cards to the reject
hopper.
