Built around the SMART-21S platform from IDP Americas, this bundle is ideal for schools, small businesses, membership organizations, and offices issuing employee badges, visitor passes, and basic identification cards.

At the core of the system is the SMART-21 Simplex direct-to-card printer, a compact hand-fed device that uses dye-sublimation printing technology to produce full-color, edge-to-edge ID cards at up to 300 dpi resolution, with high-resolution monochrome support up to 1200 dpi. The printer is designed for simplicity and efficiency, offering quick setup and easy operation for users with minimal training requirements.

Some configurations may also include drivers, manuals, and additional setup tools for streamlined installation and use.

The SMART-21 series is known for its ultra-compact footprint and lightweight design, making it one of the smallest desktop ID card printers available. It connects via USB and is designed for low-volume issuance environments where ease of use, affordability, and reliability are the top priorities. Its hand-fed operation and simple ribbon loading system make it especially suitable for organizations issuing cards on an as-needed basis.
