Is this your first time buying with us? Because of the high-fraud nature of photo ID supplies and equipment, a bank wire transfer may be required. Government entities, large businesses and other well-known organizations may make purchases with a credit card. It is possible, upon placement of your order, that you may be contacted by one of our Customer Service Representatives.

An all-in-one ribbon cartridge combines the printer ribbon and card cleaning roller into one cartridge, eliminating the hassle of hard-to-load ribbons, separate card cleaning mechanisms and confusing indicator lights.
Optional DTC400e modules encode data onto contact and contactless smart cards, proximity access control cards and magnetic stripe cards.
Share your DTC400e in a network setting using the optional Ethernet or internal print server.
Ideal for small- to mid-sized businesses, K-12 schools, regional and local government agencies, membership and loyalty clubs, events and more.
Reduce downtime, operator errors and training costs by constantly knowing printer status through the SmartScreen LCD control panel.
Prints standard thickness cards plus thin (9 mil) cards for mailing, attaching to a medical chart or slipping into a billfold. It also prints rewritable cards that help reduce the waste of use-then-trash cards such as visitor badges.
