Featuring high-performance and enterprise-grade security features, it is an ideal choice for government ID projects, universities, hospitals and medium to large sized organizations seeking distinguishable, professional-quality full-color ID cards.
Two important security features, standard password protection and AES 256 data encryption help keep information safe. Additional security is provided by a custom watermark overlay feature that masks the resin panel, making counterfeiting nearly impossible. Plus, the resin threshold settings provide darker, crisper text and barcodes.
The DTC1500 also offers low-cost, high-capacity consumables and GreenCircle Certified ribbons to reduce your cost-per-card while protecting the environment. Its modular, scalable design simplifies in-field equipment upgrades and enables the addition of optional lamination and encoding modules.
4. Lamination
This ID card printer with lamination helps protect your cards from everyday wear and tear by applying a layer of durable laminate. It also makes it more difficult for fraudsters to tamper with your cards by obscuring text and images when they try to peel back the laminate.
This Fargo printer is designed with important security features including a printer password, obfuscating text and a resin scramble feature that allows users to essentially erase any printed data that could be extracted from the K panel of used ribbons. Fargo also offers a three-year manufacturer warranty on both the printer and printhead.
The HID Fargo DTC1500 PR-FG-51410 is a versatile direct-to-card printer that can be field upgraded with encoding capabilities, lamination and wi-fi connectivity for even greater functionality. This printer is an ideal choice for government ID projects, schools and universities, K-12, healthcare facilities and small to medium-sized businesses.
5. Encoding
Built on 20 years of proven direct-to-card printing expertise, the HID Fargo DTC1500 printer and encoder offers the convenience and lower cost of high-capacity consumables with a comprehensive feature set – enabling organizations to routinely issue secure cards and IDs at a fraction of the cost without sacrificing quality. This model boasts distinctive security capabilities perfect for government ID projects, universities and colleges, K-12 schools, healthcare facilities and small-to-medium businesses.
Standard password-protected printer operation, AES data encryption and Fargo’s resin scramble (obscures “K” panel text by shifting it between print passes) are just a few of the many features that protect card issuance programs from fraudulent activities. You can even add a custom overlay watermark to your badges using this printer, at no additional cost!
