For some of us in Australia, handing over a paper drivers licence as proof of ID doesn’t seem so long ago. The traditional paper based licences were replaced throughout the late 1980’s to early 1990’s with cut, paste and laminate ID cards produced with Polaroid instant photograph technology.

Since 2000 many Australian States have been migrating to digital ID cards, where the ID card information is printed directly onto the ~plastic card~plastic}. It is through the increased demand for instant issuance of digital Identification card production technology, that desktop plastic ID card printers have become widely available at affordable prices making them viable solutions for the production of Student ID cards, Club Membership Cards, Loyalty Cards, Staff ID cards, Induction Cards and Other ID cards.

There are two common methods for ID card printers to print to plastic cards; these are Direct to Card Printing, and Re-transfer Card Printing.

Direct to Card – Card Printers

Direct to Card ID card printers print the images to the card via a thermal print head and dye sublimation ribbon, directly to the PVC plastic card. PVC plastic is the only good receptive surface for thermal transfer dye sublimation card production. If the cards only require single colour personalisation, a thermal wax/resin ribbon is used, and while it may printer to a wider range of plastic, PVC cards provide the best print quality.

The most significant issue with direct to card printing is that the print head is in close contact to the plastic card, and any imperfection or contaminant (dust / sand particle) can cause a scratch in the ceramic head, requiring the head to be replaced.  Replacement heads can cost as much at $ 1000, so it’s a costly exercise to replace them. Many ID card printer manufacturers consider the print head a consumable, with an average life of 10,000 full colour cards.

Another issue of direct to card printing is that they cannot print reliably right to the edge of the card leaving a thin white border around the card. This is particularly noticeable if the card is designed with dark background.

You will often see ID cards printed on a direct to card printer designed with a mostly white background or in the case of many club membership applications, with the photo and name printed to a pre-printed card design where the card base stock is “offset printed” in a factory in bulk, leaving a space for the photo to be printed later.

Re-Transfer – Card Printers

The alternate printing technology to direct to card is, re-transfer card printing, or “Reverse Image Transfer” printing. This process is where the card printer prints from the thermal print head, via dye sublimation to a clear polyester film. The printed image is reversed as it is then “laminated” via heated roller onto the card where it then appears right way around.

Re-transfer printing has an advantage, because the polyester film has been specially designed to be receptive to the ink from the ribbon and can provide lot clearer, more defined images with great colour accuracy. The image is also stretched slightly to ensure full coverage of the plastic card with “over the edge” printing is possible.

Re-transfer printing is the highest standard of printing in desktop ID card printers today, and while it has a slight premium in cost due to the use of the polyester film, the image quality is far superior to direct to card printers.

Most card printer manufacturers produce both direct to card and retransfer printer models, including PPC, Magicard, Digital Identification, Zebra, Datacard and Fargo.

If you are looking for more specific information on an ID Card Printer in Australia or you need to find a specialist in producing an ID Card. Printers vary in speed, quality, reliability and running costs take the time to get advice on exactly what you need in an ID Card Printing System.

To a counsellor, relationship counselling can be the most demanding of all therapies as, instead of just one client, there are two, and by the very nature of the situation, there is a difficult situation. However, it is also most rewarding, as being able to effectively help a couple negotiate their pain and differences and fall in love again can have a very positive impact on the rest of their lives.

As with any counselling, it is essential for your therapist to establish rapport with you as a client, and with couple counselling this aspect is crucial so that each of you feels able to express your problems and thoughts, and feels listened to, empathised and understood by your counsellor.

It is also important that the counsellor is non-biased, or at least supportive of each person. Good therapy will help you explore the potential of your relationship, no matter how bad it seems to be in at present.

When you have expressed what your issues, concerns and feelings are, a good relationship counsellor will give you insight into what underlying patterns and dynamics may be at the root of the problems. They will also normalise patterns where necessary so you will gain a better understanding of how common your particular issues are.

While it’s important to be able to get out the issues each of you hold, it’s equally important to work in the positives, as too much negativity is usually a factor once a couple has experienced problems for some time.

This is done in two ways. Firstly is to remember and appreciate the positive things and strengths there are already in the relationship -to acknowledge and celebrate them (the fact that you both came to relationship counselling to improve your relationship means at the very least you both value it).

Secondly, it’s important to create a positive plan to improve or overcome the problems each of you are having. I usually do this by encouraging each client to think about what are their Top 5 “asks” on their Positive Want list, that if they were to happen would make them very happy with their relationship. (These are usually their issues turned into an “ask” in a positive manner.) In this way, we are able to resolve the problems of each person in a positive and reciprocal manner. Then each one can be worked through starting with the top priority for each person.

When a new plan for each partner is agreed on, it’s important as a partner to honour these new vows, and for the counsellor to keep you accountable, as well as be supportive of any challenges you may experience. Ultimately, actions will speak louder than words as you move towards an improved relationship, and your relationship therapist will encourage and support you as you move further toward that goal.

The traditional approach to criminal law is that criminal acts are conscientiously wrong. The purpose of criminal sanctions was to make the offender make retribution for harm done and compensate for his or her moral guilt; punishment was to be apportioned in proportion to the guilt of the accused. In modern times more rational and pragmatic views have prevailed. Writers of the Enlightenment such as Cesare Beccaria in Italy, Montesquieu and Voltaire in France, Jeremy Bentham in Britain, and P.J.A. von Feuerbach in Germany considered the core purpose of criminal law to be the prevention of crime. With the development of the social sciences, there came current ideas, such as those of the protection of the public and the reform of the offender. Such reasoning can be seen in the West German criminal code of 1975, which states that the court “has to consider the effect of the sentence upon the future life of the offender in society”. In the United States, a Model Penal Code proposed by the American Law Institute in 1962 states that an objective of criminal law should be “to give fair warning of the nature of the conduct declared to constitute an offense” and “to promote the correction and rehabilitation of offenders.” Since that time there has been renewed interest in the concept of general prevention, including both the deterrence of potential offenders and the stabilization and strengthening of social norms.

Common Law and Code Law

Principal differences exist between the criminal law of most English-speaking countries and that of other countries. The criminal law of England and the U.S. derives from the traditional English common law of crimes and has its origins in former judicial decisions embodied in reports of decided cases. England has consistently rejected {efforts toward comprehensive legislative codification of its criminal law; even now there is no statutory definition of homicide in English law. Some Commonwealth countries, however, notably India, have sanctioned criminal codes that are based on the English common law of crimes.

The criminal law of America, derived from the English common law, has been adapted in some respects to American conditions. In the majority of the U.S. states the common law of crimes has been repealed by legislation. The consequences of such statutes is that no person may be tried for any offense that is not specified in the statutory law of the state. But even in these states the common-law principles continue to exert influence, as the criminal statutes are very often simply codifications of the common law, and their provisions are interpreted by reference to the common law. In the remaining states, prosecutions for common-law offenses not specified in statutes can at times happen. In a few states the so-called penal, or criminal, codes are simply collections of individual provisions with little effort made to relate the parts to the whole or to define or implement any theory of control by penal measures.

In western Europe criminal law of modern times has emerged from various codifications. Particularly the two Napoleonic codes, the Code d’Instruction Criminelle of 1808 and the Code Pénal of 1810. The latter constituted the leading model for European criminal legislation throughout the first half of the 19th century, after which, although its influence in Europe decreased, it continued to play an important role in the legislation of particular Latin-American and Middle Eastern countries. The German codes of 1871 (penal code) and 1877 (procedure) were the models for other European countries and have had powerful influence in Japan and South Korea, although after World War II the U.S. laws of criminal procedure were the main influence in the latter countries. The Italian codes of 1930 denote one of the technically most developed legislative efforts in modern history. English criminal law has particularly influenced the law of Israel and also that of the English-speaking African states. French criminal law has predominated in the French-speaking African states. Italian criminal law and theory have predominated in Latin America.

In recent times the movement for codification and law reform has made considerable progress everywhere. The American Law Institute’s Model Penal Code caused a comprehensive reexamination of both federal and state criminal law, and new codes were enacted in most of the states. England has enacted a number of important reform laws (including those on theft, sexual offenses, and murder), as well as modern legislation on imprisonment, probation, suspended sentences, and community service. Sweden enacted a new strongly progressive penal code in 1962. In West Germany (Federal Republic of Germany) a revised version of the criminal code was published in 1975 and subsequently often amended. In the same year a new criminal code came into force in Austria. New criminal codes have also been published in Portugal (1982) and Brazil (1984). France enacted significant reform laws in 1958, 1970, 1975, and 1982, as did Italy in 1981 and Spain in 1983. Other reforms have been constituted in Finland, The Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland, and Japan. The Soviet Union’s constituent republics began enacting revised criminal codes in 1960, as did Czechoslovakia and Hungary (1961), East Germany (German Democratic Republic), Bulgaria, and Romania (1968), and Poland (1969). After Yugoslavia became a federal state in 1974, a number of local penal codes came into force in addition to the federal code of 1977.
