Pre-printing of cards can be done in the following way. Offset printing is used for detailed printing and for full color printing. Screen printing is used for metallic ink and large print surfaces. A combination of offset and screen printing is possible. Magnet strips and signature panels can be applied during lamination of the cards. Smart chips can be applied at the end of the production process.

With the help of graphics printing logos and text can be printed in color. With D2T2 techniques (Dye Diffusion Thermal Transfer) full color printing is possible.
