The Smart-21S is for those who want to produce professional cards on demand – without investing in a larger, more expensive card printer. The package brings together printer, software, cards, and ribbon, so you have what you need for the first 100 full-color cards.
The Smart-21S is a small, lightweight, hand-fed desktop printer.The user places one card in the printer, starts printing, and receives the finished card immediately. That workflow is well suited for cards issued individually or in small quantities.
It can produce both full-color cards with photo and black-and-white cards with text, numbering, or barcode.
