The Entrust Artista CR805 Encoding Upgrade Kit (533761-002) is a genuine hardware upgrade designed to expand the credential personalization capabilities of compatible Entrust Artista CR805 retransfer card printers. This kit supports the addition of magnetic stripe and smart card encoding functionality, helping organizations produce more advanced credentials from a single card issuance platform.
By adding encoding capabilities directly to the CR805 workflow, organizations can simplify card production by combining printing and credential personalization in one system rather than relying on separate encoding equipment. This helps improve efficiency, reduce manual handling, and create a more consistent card issuance process.
The upgrade is ideal for organizations producing secure identification cards, access control credentials, employee badges, membership cards, and other multi-technology credentials that require electronic personalization. Supporting advanced encoding workflows allows the CR805 platform to adapt to changing credential requirements while maintaining the performance and reliability of a retransfer printing solution.
This accessory is especially valuable for environments that need flexible credential options, including corporate facilities, government agencies, educational institutions, healthcare organizations, and security-focused programs. By expanding the CR805’s capabilities, organizations can support a wider range of card technologies while protecting their existing printer investment.
Designed for compatible Entrust Artista CR805 configurations, this upgrade kit provides a practical way to enhance card issuance functionality and support secure credential programs with more advanced personalization requirements.
As a genuine Entrust accessory, the Artista CR805 Encoding Upgrade Kit is engineered for reliable compatibility with supported printer configurations and helps maximize the capabilities of existing CR805 retransfer card printing systems.
