One of Digital Identification Solutions’ newest printers, the EDIsecure DCP 360+ Direct Card Printer, builds upon the company’s already developed line while adding new features such as dual-side lamination and smart card encoding for both contact and contactless technologies, explains Jonathan Bowen, product marketing manager at the company.

“More and more of the market, especially the smart card market is wanting to put laminate on the backside of the card to protect it against abrasion, dye migration and just wear and tear,” says Bowen. Dual-sided lamination is also effective than single-sided lamination in preventing card warping.
