Flexible printing 
Quantum prints text, pictures and barcodes, in monochrome or color, on cards with thicknesses from 0.50 to 1 mm (20 to 40 mil), single or dual sided.

Designed to save your time 
Loading cards and ribbons is a breeze, thanks to the user-friendly wide-access systems. Hoppers can be installed and removed in a jiffy and cards are sorted out in the order of printing.

New processes and a patented encoding module for maximized throughput

• Cards are preloaded to speed to the personalization process
• With 2 distinct modules, printing and encoding tasks are performed simultaneously
• The mag/smart encoding unit is reversible: the card is printed and encoded without having to be flipped over.

Flexible encoding 
Quantum is delivered with a magnetic stripe encoder, a smart contact station and a bracket to host a contactless antenna. You can combine up to three encoding technologies. And for further flexibility, you can directly assemble your own encoder, thanks to the easy-to-access connecting board
