Matica Secure Protected Image – MSPI®
The LX PRINTER in combination with the XID-M series retransfer printer enables the use of Matica’s proprietary technology, MSPI, in a decentralized issuance environment. MSPI adds an extra security feature when using polycarbonate cards by extracting the black (K) from the color image and adding it as a laser engraved secondary process in perfect register.
Flexible 3 in 1 modular design
Inline retransfer printing and lamination
The MC-L2 laminator module is the ideal solution to enhance the durability and security of cards printed on the LX PRINTER and XID-M600 retransfer printer. Easy to install and operate, the MC-L2 works inline to laminate cards at exceptional speeds, laminating both sides of the card in less than 20 seconds thanks to the simultaneous dual-side lamination process.
New game-changing features
Dual input hoppers
A dual 2x 200 card input hopper printer version is also available. This enables users to issue two different card types on-demand – for example, a driver’s license and a vehicle registration card.
