Matica XID Edisecure 8600 Re-transfer card printer

High-volume card issuance often struggles with edge-to-edge printing quality and durability. The Matica XID 8600 solves this by employing retransfer technology, which prints onto a clear film and then fuses it onto the card, delivering vibrant, tamper-resistant credentials with true over-the-edge coverage.

Who is it for

This printer is ideal for government agencies, universities, and enterprises that need secure, long-lasting ID cards, access badges, or membership cards. It suits environments where print quality and card longevity are non-negotiable, and where single-sided printing is sufficient with an option to upgrade later.
