Evolis Primacy 2 Single-Sided ID Card Printer - Elyctis Smart Card Encoder + CLM Lamination

The Evolis Primacy 2 is the flagship of Evolis direct-to-card printing: a fast, field-proven desktop ID card printer for medium and large runs. It prints edge-to-edge at 300 dpi, up to 235 color or 1,000 monochrome cards per hour, from a 100-card hopper with low-level detection, and accepts cards from 10 to 50 mil thick. Contact smart card encoding built inThis configuration includes the factory-installed Evolis Elyctis Smart encoder. It personalizes contact smart cards to the PC/SC and EMV 2000-1 standards inline, so each card is printed and encoded in a single inline job. Card lamination includedThis configuration pairs the printer with the Evolis Card Lamination Module (CLM). The CLM applies clear or holographic patches and varnishes to one or both sides of the card as part of the same inline job, extending card life up to 10 years and making credentials far harder to alter or copy. Because lamination applies heat, use composite PVC/PET cards in this configuration: standard all-PVC cards can warp under laminator heat. The recommended composite cards are listed under Compatible Supplies. Built for daily productionThe Primacy 2 pairs a drop-in ribbon cassette with automatic ribbon identification, graphical alerts for cleaning and low supplies, an operator-replaceable print head, and Digital Erasing that clears sensitive information from printer memory. It supports the standard High Trust ribbon range and the Easy4pro cardboard-cassette range that cuts plastic waste, and the YMCKOO ribbon adds laminate-level front-side durability without a laminator. Software includedEvery Primacy 2 ships with an ID-ALL Starter Edition license for designing and printing badges on Windows and macOS, plus Evolis Premium Suite 2 drivers with Windows certification and the Evolis Print Service app for printing from Android and iOS. Upgrades to higher ID-ALL editions are sold separately, and a free SDK supports custom integrations. Specialist ID is an authorized Evolis dealer. The Primacy 2 carries a 3-year printer warranty and a 3-year warranty on the original print head when genuine Evolis High Trust ribbons are used.
