Advanced Retransfer Printing Technology

Unlike direct-to-card printers, the HDP6600 first prints your image onto a high-definition transfer film before permanently bonding it to the card surface. This process creates rich, vibrant colors, exceptional image clarity, and true edge-to-edge coverage while protecting the print beneath the transfer film for increased durability. Retransfer technology is especially valuable when printing on smart cards, proximity cards, contactless credentials, uneven card surfaces, or composite cards where traditional printers often leave white borders or inconsistent print quality.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes retransfer printing different?
The HDP6600 doesn't print directly onto the card. Instead, it prints your design onto a clear transfer film that's permanently fused to the card, creating vibrant edge-to-edge images, longer-lasting credentials, and excellent results on smart cards and other uneven card surfaces.

Can the HDP6600 print on smart cards?
Yes. It is specifically designed to print exceptionally well on smart cards, contactless cards, proximity cards, and uneven card surfaces.

Can I add encoding later?
Yes. Multiple field-upgradable encoding options allow you to expand your printer as your credential program evolves.

Does this base model include lamination?
No. This base configuration is a single-sided printer. Lamination modules can be added on compatible configurations.
