Artista CR805 Duplex Retransfer Printer, 125-Card

The Entrust CR805 PrecisionColor ID Maker is a professional retransfer card printer designed for high‑quality, on‑demand production of photo IDs, access badges and membership cards across corporate, education, government and event environments. Combining 600 dpi retransfer printing with pigment inks and borderless, over‑the‑edge duplex capability, the platform produces durable, photo‑realistic output suitable for PVC, PET and composite cards. Modular options for contactless and magnetic encoding, optional lamination and retransfer film, and flexible connectivity make the CR805 appropriate for secure ID programs that require reliable throughput, consistent color reproduction, machine‑readable features and long‑lasting badge protection in busy issuance workflows.

Key Features

• High‑resolution output: 600 dpi retransfer printing with pigment ink delivers photographic quality, fine text and microtext for secure, professional badges.
• Edge‑to‑edge duplex printing: Dual‑sided, over‑the‑edge capability enables full‑bleed designs and consistent front/back registration for IDs and membership cards.
• Robust media handling: Supports PVC, PVC composite, PC and PET cards with 0.030–0.040 in thickness and a 125‑card input hopper for sustained production.
• Encoding and security options: Integrates HID Omnikey single‑wire contactless encoders, ISO magnetic stripe and smart‑card formats for secure access and credentialing.
• Flexible connectivity and deployment: USB and Ethernet standard, with Wi‑Fi available on select models to fit networked desktop and counter environments.
