Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9921713A1] An identification card printer (10) is adapted to receive a supply of identification cards (3) and print material onto the cards (3) sequentially. A lamination station (104) is provided for laminating over the ink jet printing to protect the printing on the printed card (3) from the environment. A flipping mechanism (9) is positioned between the lamination station (104), a magnetic encoder (13), and a smart encoder (14), and an ink jet printhead (4) in order to laminate, encode, and print on both sides of the cards (3).
