Fargo introduced High Definition Printing™ (HDP®) technology in 1999, and we’ve been advancing the technology ever since. It produces High Definition cards that give you outstanding print quality over embedded electronics, plus high durability and security — the ideal way to produce prox and smart cards. The HDP5000 printer/encoder is our fastest, most efficient HDP model ever, with improvements at every level. Simpler operation requires only minimal training. Cards, ribbons and overlaminates now come in cartridges that literally load in a snap. Sharper image quality and new HDP materials deliver more impressive cards at a lower cost per card. And faster printing helps you fly through the biggest production jobs.

It’s so easy to operate, there’s virtually no learning curve or maintenance. Time to change the ribbon? The ribbon cartridge contains both the printer ribbon and card-cleaning roller all in one disposable cartridge. Just slide it into the printer, and start printing. The Persona C30 prints text, logos, bar codes, signatures, and photos in full colour. And the C30 dual sided printer saves time and reduces card handling by automatically flipping each card to print both sides in one pass. Add an optional magnetic stripe encoding module to increase the versatility of your cards.

Fargo HDP600 & HDP600LC ID Card Printers. The choice for government, corporate and other high security applications. Fargo HDP600 High Definition card printer/encoders meet the demand for secure, reliable electronic card personalisation.

With traditional dye-sublimation printers, the printhead comes in contact with the card it’s printing. Unfortunately, this means these printers can’t consistently print on the ridges and indentations caused by internal RFID antenna, integrated circuits and smart chips. Even worse, the printhead and card’s electronics can get damaged. With High Definition Printing, however, there’s never any contact between the printhead and card. Instead, transfer film is printed on and fused flush to the card through heat and pressure. Now you can consistently print over surface irregularities even to the edge of a smart chip without damaging the card’s electronics or your printhead.
