The
Eltron P420 plastic
card printer is highly
versatile, and
designed for high
volume printing of
dual-sided plastic
cards
in color or monochrome.
Use the P420 card
printer to print:

The
P420’s rugged,
all metal enclosure
houses a low-maintenance
print mechanism that
includes self-cleaning
card handling, high
capacity ribbon system,
two-line LCD control
panel, and convenient
card reject hopper.
The reject hopper
separates cards that
fail
encoding prior to
printing, saving valuable
printer ribbon.
The enclosure includes
a viewing window to
monitor the
printing process without
opening the unit.
Transparent input
and output hoppers
provide visual card
capacity status.
The
P420 is easy to load
and use; the operator
control panel
displays printer status
and functions that
guide the operator,
using easy to understand
status and simple
instructions. Printer
ribbon synchronization
is automatic, eliminating
the need for
operator intervention.
A self-cleaning cartridge
thoroughly
removes dust before
printing to help eliminate
card rejects
due to dust contamination.
Eltron
card printers provide
precise card printing,
economical,
reliable, easy-to-use
operation, plus the
broadest line of options,
accessories and supplies
in the industry.
Eltron
card printer products
