Where to Print ID Cards? Should You Order Online or Print at Home?
Are you in need of some printed ID cards but unsure where to start? The biggest thing to consider is whether to invest in your very own ID card printer or get your ID cards printed by a third party.
Plastic card printing is considered by many to be a very specialised service. So it may come as a surprise how easily and cheaply printing ID cards at home can be. Commissioning a specialised printer will still be the best option for some. However, for the majority of businesses, purchasing a machine for printing plastic ID cards is the best investment in the long term.
What is The Difference Between Edge-To-Edge and Over-The-Edge Printing?
It’s important to understand the differences between an edge-to-edge printer and over-the-edge machine, before you invest in a plastic card printer. The simplest difference is that an edge-to-edge printer leaves a plain border on the card, whilst an over-the-edge printer leaves no border at all.
The appearance of your card’s border is a key consideration but there are many more variables than this. That’s why we’ve put together a complete guide to break down the key advantages and disadvantages of ETE and OTE printers. By the time you’ve read this, you’ll have a much clearer picture on the type of card printer that is right for your business.
