Datacard SP75 Plastic Card Printer

Back to Datacard SP75 Plastic Card Printer variants

Versatile card lamination

The SP75 Plus printer can be configured with one standard laminator and a second optional laminator. Both can apply Datacard DuraGard® virtual edge-to-edge laminates that cover 95% of the card to increase security and durability. With both laminators, you can apply any combination of security laminates or protective topcoats in a single pass, or apply different laminates to each side to improve cost-efficiency.

Flexible, high-quality printing

This printer makes it easy to print a variety of secure IDs. Choose from one- or two-sided printing, both of which deliver superior dye sublimation quality and true edge-to-edge coverage. You can also take advantage of vivid, full-color output or single-color printing.

Ultraviolet fluorescent printing

Strengthen card security with variable text ultraviolet (UV) fluorescent printing. Fluorescent text can be seen only under UV light, which makes it easy to validate the authenticity of the card and severely hinders any attempt at forgery.

USB and Ethernet connectivity

Plug this printer into a computer and start issuing cards in minutes with your choice of USB or 10/100 Base-T Ethernet connectivity, both of which come standard.

Quick-change supplies

The SP75 Plus printer makes it fast and easy to print many different kinds of secure IDs with quick-change, error-free ribbon loading, as well as laminate and topcoat cartridges that can be replaced in seconds.

Second lamination station

Ensure optimal security and durability with an optional second lamination station. The second station also helps reduce program costs, allowing you to apply a custom security laminate on the front of the card and a more cost-effective clear topcoat on the back.

Input hopper empty detection

The SP75 Plus printer can detect when the input hopper is empty. Add this custom feature to your printer with the software developer’s kit (SDK).

Security suite

The SP75 Plus card printer provides superior protection for cards, supplies and the printer itself with an innovative suite of security features:

Printer-PC security software This feature disables printing if the printer is connected to any PC that is not the designated host PC, so the printer cannot print cards if it is stolen.
Card auditing Card auditing tracks the number of cards picked, completed, rejected and lost to ensure accurate accounting.
Hardware lock system Prevent theft of supply items with optional locks for the input hopper, reject area and lamination station.
