{"product_id":"datacard-cr805","title":"Datacard CR805 Retransfer ID Card Printer","description":"\u003ch6\u003eDetailed cards with an over-the-edge finish\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Entrust Datacard CR805 uses pigment-ink retransfer printing to produce detailed photo IDs and branded cards. Instead of printing directly onto the card surface, it prints onto transfer film before applying the image to the card. This is a useful choice when fine detail and a consistent finish are priorities for your identification programme.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eColour that supports a professional identity\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003ePigment ink helps resist fading caused by UV exposure, while high-resolution printing supports fine text and barcode detail. Consider the whole card design when comparing printers: a clear photograph, readable type and sensible spacing help people check an ID quickly. Protection and lifespan still depend on the card material, handling and environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eChoose single- or dual-sided printing\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eSelect the single-sided configuration for a design on one face, or the dual-sided configuration when you need information on the reverse as well. The reverse can hold instructions or administrative information without crowding the photograph and name. The configurations here are printer-only versions, with USB and Ethernet connectivity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eA system you can plan around your application\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe CR805 family supports optional encoding and additional card-finishing equipment. These must be specified for the application and are not included merely because the model supports them. If your project requires smartcard encoding or lamination, tell Lesar which cards, credentials and durability requirements you need to support.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eDo I need both ribbon and film? Yes: retransfer printing requires a compatible ink ribbon and transfer film, plus suitable cards. Are those supplies included? The archived printer offer excludes blank cards and consumables; order them separately. Can it print onto any card? Check the material, surface and thickness against the supported stock requirements, especially for technology cards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003ePrepare for reliable day-to-day use\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep compatible cleaning supplies available and follow the manufacturer’s maintenance instructions. Before committing to a large card run, check a sample design and your selected supplies. We can help match the configuration to your project.
