Single Sided ID Card Printer

Single-sided ID card printers are specifically designed to print on one side of an ID card at a time, offering an affordable and practical option for smaller businesses and organizations that require lower volumes of ID cards, around 200 cards per year. These printers are typically more cost-effective than their dual-sided counterparts, making them an ideal choice for those with budget constraints.


However, it's worth considering investing in a dual-sided printer upfront for several reasons. As your organization grows and requires more advanced features, a dual-sided printer can save you from having to upgrade your single-sided printer later on. Dual-sided printers offer increased efficiency, faster printing times, and the ability to store more information on a single card. Additionally, they provide a more professional appearance and can reduce the need for multiple cards, ultimately saving on material costs.


In summary, while single-sided ID card printers are a cost-effective, space-saving, and versatile option for businesses and organizations with lower volume ID card requirements, it may be worth investing in a dual-sided printer upfront to meet your evolving needs and save on future upgrade costs.

Byron was very helpful. He correctly installed my license software for me so that I would not have to use the Bodno in demo mode. I was unaware of this issue, so I was grateful for his assistance.
