Oslo (Norway) Police Department

Challenge:

The Oslo Police is called upon to provide security for foreign dignitaries visiting the city. There was a need to easily and uniquely identify all government officials, security personnel and journalists attending the functions.

Product:

Eltron's P310C printer. P310 Series printers come standard with Windows drivers and WindCard™ software. Their surprisingly small footprint and easy-loading, minimal maintenance design make desk-top operation simple and efficient. They print sharp, readable bar codes, graphics and text in less than five seconds. Optional features include magnetic stripe and Smart chip encoding.

All P Series on-demand plastic card printers offer sharp 300 dpi print resolution. Durable design features give you full color value or monochrome economy, and assure the portability necessary for on-demand personal identification card printing.

Use P310 printers to print:

• Membership cards
• Visitor and employee badges
• Identification and access control cards
• Student identification cards
  
  

Result:

The Oslo Police chose the P310C printer which interfaces with software containing data pertinent to the printing of the plastic cards to be issued. The system is simpler and easier to use than the manual system for creating laminated cards previously in place; details the role or function of each card holder; presents a greater sense of security for the foreign dignitaries; and enables considerably more safety for the visitors in that it is quite difficult to duplicate the cards by other means. In addition, the appearance of the new cards greatly enhances the professional image of the Oslo Police.
