Are you looking for the absolute top in the field of ID card printing that combines uncompromising image quality, maximum security, and long service life? The professional plastic card printer Evolis Avansia AV1HB000BD represents the technological pinnacle in the retransfer printing segment. With an extremely high resolution of 600 dpi, duplex printing, an integrated magnetic stripe encoder (MSR), and a robust design, this printer is engineered for the most demanding projects, where every detail matters.
Unlike conventional direct-to-card printers, the Evolis Avansia uses advanced retransfer technology (transfer printing). This process guarantees perfect card coverage all the way to the very edges (over-the-edge) without unsightly white borders and enables seamless printing on various types of materials, including the uneven surfaces of smart chip cards. Invest in equipment that will take your organization's presentation and security to a whole new level.
Most standard card printers operate at a resolution of 300 dpi. However, the Evolis Avansia features a print head with a density of 24 dots/mm (600 dpi). What does this mean in practice? Texts as small as just a few points are perfectly sharp and legible, making them ideal for printing tiny security features, microtext, or complex Asian characters. Photos on ID documents have natural skin tones, smooth transitions, and a depth that matches professional photographic printing. Your logos and graphic elements will look exactly as they were designed.
Traditional printheads can be damaged by irregularities on the card, for example in areas where a contact or contactless chip is integrated. Retransfer technology completely eliminates this problem. The graphics are first printed onto a transparent transfer film (retransfer film), which is then applied to the card itself using heat and pressure. The result is:
The AV1HB000BD model comes standard with a module for automatic double-sided printing (dual-sided). No more manual card turning and risking contamination with grease from your fingers. The printer prints both the front and back sides of the card in a single cycle. This gives you unlimited possibilities – on the front side, you can place a photograph, name, and company logo, while on the back side, you can print a barcode, operating rules, contact information, or a signature field.
This printer configuration is equipped with an integrated magnetic stripe encoder (Magnetic Stripe Reader/Encoder). In a single pass through the printer, you can not only visually print the card, but also write the necessary data to the magnetic stripe at the same time (e.g. for attendance, access, or loyalty systems). This saves time and eliminates the risk of human error when matching visual and digital data.
Evolis Avansia was designed with high workload and long-term reliability in mind. Its internal metal structure ensures exceptional stability and resistance to wear. The printer is ready for the production of large volumes of cards without the need for constant service interventions.
With an input hopper capacity of 250 cards and an output hopper capacity of 250 cards (with a card thickness of 0.76 mm), you can start print jobs and focus on other work. The printer operates autonomously and efficiently. The printing speed is optimized to provide the highest possible quality in the shortest possible time – it can produce up to 144 full-color single-sided cards per hour.
Integrating the printer into your existing IT infrastructure is a breeze. The Evolis Avansia AV1HB000BD offers two standard connectivity options:
For easy operation and an immediate overview of the printer status, a clear LCD display is located on the front panel. It informs the user about the current printing status, the remaining capacity of the ribbon, the need for cleaning, or possible error states. Operating the printer is very intuitive and requires no specialized training.
Nowadays, data security and protection against counterfeiting are key requirements. Evolis Avansia offers advanced security features that protect your sensitive information:
