Entrust Datacard CD805
This prints ID cards of standard CR80 dimensions. It does overprinting so when designing your image take that in mind (see Administration Guide pg.67 pdf pg.77). Document dimensions should be 2100px X 1344px (3.5in x 2.24in @ 600dpi).
Consumables
The printer consumes ink ribbon and transfer ribbon . Both are not available for purchase from the manufacturer. A pdf of all consumables is in the links section.
Pricing
TL;DR ~$0.70 per duplex card
| Type | Number of Prints | Price |
|---|---|---|
| CMYK | 1000 Simplex | ~$400 |
| CMYK-K | 1000 Duplex | ~$500 |
| Retransfer | 1000 Simplex | ~$100 |
Privacy
This machine uses a transfer ribbon.
A negative image of anything you print is retained inside the machine on the spent ink ribbon.
Do not use this machine to print anything you don't mind leaving inside the machine, and eventually, when the ribbon runs out, the trash.
