Ideal for small to mid-size businesses, schools, and local government agencies that require reliable printing

Ideal for small to mid-size businesses, schools, and local government agencies that require reliable printing, the DTC4250e IS card printer and encoder features a flexible and modular design that can be easily adapted whenever your organization grows or your printing needs change.

The DTC4250e also features new security enhancements, such as the embedded iCLASS SE smart card encoder for encoding organizational or personnel data directly onto the card and AES-256 data decryption for protection of financial information. The DTC4250e can also be password protected so only approved operators can print and encode security cards and visitor badges.
