The TCP400 is the latest visual card reader/writer system from DED Limited.
The latest addition to the TCP series from Star Micronics, this new printer can take plastic cards of 0.76mm in thickness and erase and re-write the information on them in as little as 3 seconds, up to a maximum of 500 times.
Printing high contrast black or blue text at up to 203 dpi on any colour background, the TCP400 is ideal for environments where cards need to be reused again and again, such as temporary access control and visitor management applications as well as loyalty, membership and appointment cards.
The TCP400 has a choice of USB or RS232C Serial interface options and comes with Windows 2000 and XP drivers - with a footprint of just 119mm wide x 270mm deep x 132.5mm height, this re-writable card printer even has a maintenance indicator to warn the operator of the optimum time to run a head cleaning cycle in order to obtain the highest resolution card printouts.
Supplied as standard with a magnetic stripe encoder, the TCP400 is also available with an optional a Mifare encoder. For use with both options, DED can supply the dedicated CardFive software package to improve integration and offer a complete printing/encoding solution. Available in Star White and Charcoal, the TCP400 is sure to be re-writing history with its superior flexibility!
