Abstract:
Card substrate printers, such as credential production devices, are generally configured to print images to plastic substrates to form identification cards, driver's licenses, credit cards, and other items. The image printing process that is performed by the printer may be a direct-to-card printing operation, in which a print unit prints an image directly to a surface of the substrate. Alternatively, the image printing process may involve a reverse-image printing process, during which a print unit prints an image to an intermediate substrate, such as a transfer film, and the printed image is transferred from the intermediate substrate to a surface of the card substrate to complete the printing process.

Claim (Index 20):
The device according to  claim 18 , further comprising:\n a transfer ribbon; and a transfer unit; wherein:\n the print head is configured to print images to the transfer ribbon using the print ribbon; and \n the transfer unit is configured to transfer printed images from the transfer ribbon to the substrates in the processing path.
