Description
The All-New Evolis Primacy2 – Evolis’ Flagship Card Printer, Re-imagined
The all-new Evolis Primacy2 card printer is built to fulfil its primary function: to make a great first impression, every single time. It’s the second generation of Evolis’ bestselling printer line, rebuilt from the ground up to be faster, sharper, and easier to grow with – whether you’re printing 50 staff badges a week or thousands of access cards a month.
This isn’t an entry-level box that you’ll outgrow in a year. It’s a genuine production printer that scales with your business, one add-on module at a time.
Built for Speed, Without Cutting Corners
- Up to 280 cards per hour in single-sided full colour – one of the fastest print speeds in its class
- 170 cards per hour double-sided, or up to 215 cards per hour with the lamination module fitted
- 300 dpi print resolution, extendable to 300×600 dpi colour and 300×1200 dpi monochrome, with colour profile adjustment for true-to-life results
- Edge-to-edge printing – no white borders, no compromise
- Rewrite technology built in as standard, so temporary badges (think visitor passes or event access) can be printed, erased, and reprinted instead of thrown away
Grows With You
This is the feature that makes the Primacy2 worth the investment: almost everything is upgradeable on-site, long after you’ve bought it.
- Start single-sided, activate double-sided printing later with an activation key
- Start with a 100-card feeder, add the 200-card feeder when volumes pick up
- Add a lamination module for varnish, patch, or holographic security layers
- Add an LCD touchscreen for guided, QR-code-assisted operation
- Add magnetic stripe, contact smartcard, contactless smartcard, or dual encoders – combine as many as you need
You’re not buying a card printer for today. You’re buying a card printer that keeps pace with where your organisation is headed.
Security, Your Way
From a simple staff photo badge to a fully encoded access card, the Primacy2 flexes to match the risk. Available security layers include:
- Magnetic stripe, contact, contactless, and dual smartcard encoding
- UV effect printing and double-layer overlay for card durability and covert security
- Optional Kensington lock and mechanical printer locking
- Digital erasing of sensitive data from printer memory, with optional Kineclipse® data-scrambling
- Optional internal scanner reader
Where It Shines
- Employee ID badges that reinforce a sense of identity and belonging
- Access control cards for buildings, gates, and secure zones
- Membership and loyalty cards that keep customers coming back
- Student and visitor cards, especially where rewrite technology saves on card costs
- Transit passes for smooth, fast issuance at scale
Software & Ecosystem
The Evolis Primacy2 ships with ID-ALL entry-level card design software (upgradeable), and runs on Evolis Premium Suite 2 across Windows, Mac, and Linux. Print directly from a smartphone or tablet via the Evolis Print Service app, or integrate the printer into your existing systems using the Evolis SDK.
Built to Last, Designed to Tread Lightly
Evolis backs the Primacy2 with a 3-year printer and printhead warranty, reinforced printhead protection, and an eco-design approach: recycled materials in manufacturing, a compact footprint that reduces transport emissions, and a low-power hibernation mode when idle.
