DNP Introduces IDW500 Passport and ID Photo Solution

New IDW500 Passport and ID Photo Solution from DNP

CONCORD, North Carolina – DNP Imagingcomm America Corporation (DNP IAM) announced its new IDW500 Passport and ID Photo Solution. The complete image capture and printing system includes DNP’s Photo ID printer, digital camera with wireless transfer, system console, and ID photo media. The system is designed to produce passport and ID photos that are automatically evaluated and formatted to comply with government requirements for the USA and many other countries’ passport and visas, eliminating rejections and keeping customers happy.

The system’s touchscreen mini console has a 6.8-inch display and software that allows users to quickly view, select, edit, and print their pictures. The system’s digital camera is configured for swift and reliable wireless transfer to the system console. The system image processing performs eight different biometric checks on all images, presenting the result to the operator for printing.  The automatic functions of the system eliminate the need for manual adjustment and reduces the risk of operator error. The IDW500 software also creates a gallery of the past six captured images, allowing for easy reprints, or changing the ID template without taking another picture.

This comprehensive solution results in a solid workflow for faster production with consistent, high quality results. Customers also have the choice to output their images to USB stick for digital delivery.

“ID photo printing is one of the most sought-after and profitable services for our customers,” said Katsuyuki Oshima, President of DNP Imagingcomm America Corporation. “The new IDW500 is a complete ID solution for our customers that can provide new business opportunities and improved print quality.”

DNP’s Photo ID Printer has a 350-sheet capacity and comes with a three-year Advanced Exchange (AE) support program.
