What are ISO Printable Cards?
ISO Printable Cards are smart cards that work on
low frequency technology approximately 125 kHz. For printing output, they are
made with white printable surface which is glossy and provides high quality
results.
ISO Printable Cards are
designed in compliance with ISO standards for smart cards and generally they
come with a lifetime warranty. The
ISO printable cards comprises
of magnetic stripe technology, proximity card technology and also provides with
additional feature of photo identification on a single card.
Features and Characteristics of ISO printable cards
These pre-programmed cards are designed to have universal
compatibility and are easily read by standard proximity readers. The graphical
surface of the
ISO printable card works directly with image ID
printers. Generally companies manufacturing
ISO printable cards provides
lifetime warranty to its customers for any material or working defect and
service warranty.
ISO printable cards are designed with its
one side as plain white so that these cards can be later customized for unique
photo ids. For better durability and extended life period,
ISO
printable cards are design with PVC composite construction. These
cards can be punched in both the ways either vertically or horizontally.
ISO
Printable Cards reading range is dependent on the proximity card
reader and in the environment it is installed.
ISO printable cards are
smart cards that adhere to the standard and compliances of ISO 7816 set by the
International Organization for Standardization (ISO).
ISO Compliances for Smart Cards
All smart cards,
proximity cards, HID Proximity
Cards, kantech proximity cards, AWID proximity cards, indala proximity card,
printable cards, proximity key fobs, Proximity key tag, etc. are
designed in such a way that they adhere to the compliances set by the
organization International Organization for Standardization (ISO). ISO
compliance governs the standards for these cards which includes various
parameters such as physical attributes, communication features, application
identifiers for the fitted microchip and data. Generally the base reference use
for adhering to the smart card compliances refer to ISO 7816-1, 2 and 3.
Advantage of ISO printable cards
ISO printable cards works on low frequency range
and has a better readability performance. The ISO printable cards are
generally used for automation management such as access control system,
automated parking management, attendance monitoring, etc. ISO printable
cards have faster transaction ability, faster scanning, and are
designed to provide the benefit of greater reading distance. As these ISO
printable cards are compose of PVC construction material, hence they can
face harsh environment. While customizing cards using the technology of
Re-Transfer Printers that by applying pressure and heat, fuse the images to the
card surface, requires composite cards as they can withstand high temperature
and pressure. And thus for customization, ISO printable cards are
used as they are made up of composite surface and can withstand higher
temperatures and pressure. Moreover these cards are easy to use and place as
they have same thickness and size as of debit or credit cards.
