SMART 31S ID Card Printer

Evolved from the hugely successful SMART 30S ID card printer, the new SMART 31S has been developed as the perfect solution for printing ID cards on a low budget. Featuring a sleek new design and improved engineering, the SMART 31S offers even greater reliability while retaining the ease of use that the SMART brand is known for.

The SMART 31S provides the flexibility to print both colour and monochrome ribbons, making it ideal for a variety of needs such as employee photo ID cards, loyalty cards, and display cards. The printer is impressively fast, capable of printing a full-colour card in just 23 seconds.

For enhanced security applications, the SMART 31S offers upgradable RFID and contact smart card module options. It also supports the use of print ribbons with an additional UV panel, allowing you to print “hidden” security UV images that are visible under UV light for easy verification of originality. This feature is particularly useful for applications requiring an extra layer of security.

The SMART 31S is also highly versatile with options for Ethernet connectivity and a flip-over module for automatic dual-sided printing. Additionally, it supports older technologies such as magnetic stripe encoding modules, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of card types and uses.
