About this product
Evolis Primacy 2 Simplex Expert ID card printer
The Primacy 2 Simplex Expert is a single-sided direct-to-card printer for CR80 plastic cards. Put a photograph, name and organisation branding on the front of a staff, student or membership card. This configuration prints one face automatically; choose a duplex model when your design needs information on both sides.
Select the correct printer option
This listing offers Base Model (PM2-0001) and Magnetic Encoder (PM2-0004) configurations. Select Magnetic Encoder if you need to write a compatible magnetic stripe, and check that your card-design software supports the encoding workflow. The base option does not include that encoder. Contactless or contact-chip encoding is a separate requirement to discuss with ACB.
Match cards and print settings
Standard connections are USB and Ethernet, with 100-card input and output capacities at 0.76 mm. Normal resolution is 300 × 300 dpi; enhanced 300 × 600 dpi supports colour and monochrome, while 300 × 1200 dpi is monochrome only. Output speed varies with ribbon, resolution, printed sides and encoding.
The supported thickness range is 0.25–1.25 mm, with 0.25 mm cards restricted to monochrome printing. Use printer-approved cards and adjust the card gauge for the stock. Confirm the required ribbon and software licence for your workstation before ordering.
Compare the dual-sided Primacy 2. See the Evolis Primacy 2 product information and manufacturer technical sheet for platform specifications.
