Direct-To-Card Printers

Here you will find the most popular Direct-to-Card Printers that are also commonly referred as Dye-Sublimation printers. We stock the leading brands such as HiTi, Entrust Datacard, Magicard, Evolis, Fargo, Matica and Zebra.

Universal Smart Cards fully support the HiTi printers in the UK and Ireland as a main distributor and repair center for HiTi in Europe. We offer full service and support and offer a range of support packages to give peace of mind.

Direct-to-Card printers print directly to the card itself using a process known as dye-sublimation. They have fast print speeds, a good image quality and are more affordable compared to re-transfer card printers. They are limited by their ability to print to a full edge to edge.

The best advice is to look at the type of artwork designs you are printing, whether you are using pre-printed cards, and whether you need full edge to edge printing.  Just give us a call and let us know what you are trying to achieve, and we can advise the best value.
