Have questions about Matica Single-Sided Card Printers? We Have Answers!

Can I Print on Both Sides of My Cards with a Matica Single-Sided Printer?

Technically, yes, you can print one side of your cards, load them back into your card hopper, and send them through your printer again to print the other side. However, this is not only time-consuming, it's also not recommended by Matica as this practice tends to damage the sensitive printheads in card printers.

When you handle your cards after printing them, the cards will collect dust and debris from the air and oils from your hands. Putting cards that have been handled in this way back into your single-sided card printer brings these contaminates into contact with your printer's printhead. This practice commonly causes printhead pixel damage which will not only affect the quality of your printed card output, it will also be expensive to fix. Once a printhead is damaged, the only way to fix it is to replace it with a new one. Plus, damage to a printhead from this type of non-standard use may even void printer warranty coverage.

The Matica MC series ID card printers can be upgraded to dual-sided printing any time with Matica MC Dual-Sided Upgrade Kit; however, if you need to print to both sides of your cards now, shop for a dual-sided Matica printer. Manually flipping your cards to print on the back using a single-sided printer can result in printhead damage.

Should I Choose a Direct-To-Card or Retransfer Matica Single-Sided Printer?

When it comes to card printing technology, there are two main options: direct-to-card and retransfer. Direct-to-card printing, the most common method, involves printing images directly onto the surface of cards. In contrast, retransfer printing, also known as HDP printing, involves printing images onto a clear film that is then heat-sealed onto the card surface. While both methods produce high-quality images, they have distinct characteristics:

Direct-to-card printers may be sensitive to imperfections in cards. This sensitivity can result in: (1) Incomplete coverage of the card surface, leaving a thin white border around the edges of printed cards due to the printhead avoiding contact with card edges. (2) Challenges in printing on technology cards, as printing near raised areas like contact chips can risk printhead damage and cause inconsistent print quality due to uneven card surfaces.

Retransfer printers, on the other hand, are less sensitive to card imperfections. Since the printhead does not directly contact the card, the risk of printhead damage is minimized. This technology allows for full coverage of the card surface, enabling safe printing on various card types including proximity cards, smart cards, pre-punched cards, and key tags.
