The Datacard® SP25 Plus card printer delivers high-quality rewritable cards for
healthcare, education, transportation, retail and many other applications. This unique
printer gives card issuers an affordable way to change the information on existing
photo IDs and cards instantly, without the time and cost of reissuance.
The SP25 Plus card printer is based on Flexible technology for multiple markets. Applications for rewritable cards are
numerous and growing rapidly. Use the Datacard® SP25 Plus card printer to produce a wide range of rewritable and reusable cards:
• Temporary visitor IDs
• Student IDs with class schedules
• Library cards with due dates
• Patient IDs with appointments/schedules
• Transit cards with ticketing details
• Retail cards with loyalty points
• Salon cards with appointments
• Rate cards for casinos
• Hotel keys
• Ski lift tickets and other recreation cards
•
Innovative printing technology. The SP25 Plus card printer is engineered with
innovative rewritable card technology. It prints 300 dpi monochrome text and
photos on rewritable card stock, which features a clear, heat-sensitive layer that can
be erased and rewritten more than 500 times. Users feed rewritable cards manually
and the SP25 Plus printer fully erases and rewrites each one in just over 10
seconds.
•
Rewritable and reusable cards. Card issuers can use the SP25 Plus card printer to
create both rewritable and reusable cards. Rewritable cards are updated frequently
with dynamic information that is pertinent to the cardholder, such as loyalty points.
Reusable cards are issued to new cardholders every time they are rewritten, such as
visitor IDs. Both applications eliminate the supply costs of reissuance.
•
Dual-function card printing. The SP25 Plus card printer also offers full-color card
printing, making it the only system available that comes standard with fullcolor/
monochrome and rewritable card printing. Dual functionality enables you to
print photo IDs and other cards that use both technologies, such as a full-color
student ID with a current class schedule on the rewritable side.
