Fargo HDP5000 Overview

The Fargo HDP5000 High-Definition Dual-Sided , Single-Side Laminated Printer/Encoder comes with a standard holographic (500 prints) HDP film that fuses to the surface of proximity and smart cards, conforming to ridges and indentations formed by embedded electronics. Batch jobs are simplified by the use of a 100-card input hopper and a 200-card output hopper. Checking print status is easy with a SmartScreen graphical display on the front panel and the Fargo Workbench with Color Assist tool for diagnostics and matching colors for accurate prints. Additionally, it has both USB 2.0 and Ethernet connectivity options.

The Omnikey 5121 Reader Board is a dual interface PC-linked reader that reads/writes to both a 13.56 MHz contactless smart card and virtually any contact smart card. The dual interface feature, implemented on a small PCB, economically supports end-user environments where both contactless and contact smart card technology may be in use.

The Omnikey 5125 Reader Board enable OEMs, value added resellers, and system integrators to build solutions for contact and contactless security and loyalty applications. The reader board is ideal for organizations that need to integrate a convenient contact smartcard and/or HID Prox PC connected reader board.

By printing a reverse image on the underside of the HDP film, then fusing the film to the card surface, the printer creates an image quality that looks more like a sharp glossy photo. Printing on film instead of directly on the card means that the uneven surface of technology cards doesn’t compromise the image quality. In addition, the printer can print double-sided and edge-to-edge for optimum quality.

For added protection during the printing process, the printhead never comes in contact with card surfaces, thereby debris. Cards produced by high definition printing are tamper-resistant and can withstand wear and tear. Cards, ribbons, and overlaminates can be quickly loaded via the cartridge-based system. In addition, the printer is suitable for creating government, corporate, and student IDs.
