C O L O R I D PRE-PRINTED CARD SERVICES
PRE-PRINTED CARDS Pre-printed cards from ColorID offer many advantages over cards that are only printed in desktop dye-sublimation printers: 1. Durability – A 1.5 mil clear overlay is built into the surface of the card during the manufacturing process, providing superior protection for the pre-printed graphics. 2. Resolution – Pre-printing is done at approximately 10 times the resolution of that provided by desktop dye-sublimation printers, resulting in dramatically sharper images. 3. Speed – Pre-printing of background graphics allows you to print only the variable data (name, numbers, photo, etc.) on the card in your desktop printer. This can take less time than printing over the entire surface of the card, thereby increasing productivity. ColorID employs state of the art pre-printing processes: •
Fully digital pre-press for creating lithographic plates, ensuring the highest quality images. Fully digital litho offset printing presses use the most advanced technology available for plastic card printing. The color hue and density, as well as the litho plates themselves are computer controlled, to ensure the highest possible consistency and accuracy for your pre-printed cards.
•
• Cards are pre-printed and manufactured (laminated) in large sheets of 21 to 70 cards each. After printing, cutting the cards out of the sheets is guided by an optical registration system that checks for accuracy on three axes. • The cards undergo a final inspection by a computer-controlled inspection system that assures the highest card quality.
