Identis LX Printer: Now the Fastest Compact Desktop Laser System for Secure ID Card Issuance

LX Printer: Already the Most Compact — Now, the Fastest

February 5, 2026 — Identis today announces the new High-Speed Option for the LX Printer, a performance upgrade that makes it the fastest desktop laser system on the market. Building on a platform that already set the benchmark for compact, industrial-grade laser marking, the LX Printer now delivers up to 2× faster throughput without sacrificing its class-leading footprint.

An Industrial Laser Engine in a Desktop Footprint

The LX Printer was designed around a simple idea: towering laser performance should not require a tower. It packs the same proven, state-of-the-art laser source used across Identis’ central Desktop Issuance platforms into a system the size of an ordinary office printer. The result is a solution purpose-built for decentralized Secure ID Card Issuance and seamless integration into broader ID issuance schemes, where space and flexibility matter most.

What the High-Speed Option Delivers

• Up to 2× faster issuance with the new High-Speed Option
• Market-leading compactness in the laser desktop printer category
• High-performance GEN 3 LX fiber laser source
• Advanced security features — including tilted image, micro text and ghost image
• All-in-one workflow — dual-side marking, multiple encoding, camera inspection and dual card feeder

Same compact design. Same precision and security. Double the speed.

Built for Decentralized, High-Security Issuance

Modern ID programs increasingly demand issuance close to the citizen — in branches, embassies, mobile units and regional offices. The LX Printer answers that demand by bringing central-issuance-class laser capabilities to the point of need. Its dual-module architecture meets the most demanding requirements for polycarbonate-based secure ID cards, with embedded security features such as micro-text, tilted image/text and transparent-opaque elements.

Why It Matters for ID Issuance Programs

For government agencies, card bureaus and system integrators, speed and security are not opposing goals — they are the same goal. Faster issuance means shorter queues, higher throughput per branch and lower cost per card, while the LX Printer’s embedded security features help protect documents against counterfeiting and tampering. Because it shares the same laser platform as Identis’ central issuance solutions, programs can scale from a single desktop unit to enterprise-wide issuance with consistent quality and security throughout.

The LX Printer with the new High-Speed Option will be available from March 2026. To learn more about how the LX Printer can support your decentralized secure ID card issuance program, contact our team today.
