xp passport printer

The XP is designed to fulfill the new demands for enhanced security ePassport personalization. In addition to standard XP features, it can laser engrave and chip encode in the same pass. The XP comes in 4 models: the XP 24 HP, the XP 24 HD, the XP 25 HP and the XP 25 HD for either High Performance or High Definition engraving.

• Passport Input Feeder – The operator simply loads the booklet into a cassette and then stacks up to 20 cassettes in the input tray.
• Vision System – An embedded camera identifies the passports with preprinted information such as a number or barcode. XY autopositioning can be easily configured with a dedicated web tool.
• Chip Encoder for ePassports – The XP system enables the loading of personal data into the integrated electronic contactless chip. The XP can be equipped with 1 head and can be placed on both sides of the booket. The system verifies whether the data is applied correctly.
• Barcode Reader – The XP system can include a barcode reader to read preprinted labels to identify job files.
• Laser Module – The XP performs the laser engraving of the photo and personal data on the front side of the datapage. The data is aligned relative to preprinted marks using a camera. Several laser engraving options are available such as tactile engraving and the application of CLI/MLI features. The quality of the laser engraving is high, allowing for hidden information to be incorporated in the photo.
• Vision Quality Control Unit – An embedded camera cross checks all applied visual data and features with OCR and OCV functions.
• Passport Output Stacker – Finished and approved passports are stacked in the output tray where the operator can remove them at any time, even during operation.
