The FARGO HDP5000 ID Printer is exceptionally reliable, which means less printer downtime. Because the printhead never comes in contact with card surfaces or debris, it’s never damaged in the printing process. In fact, it carries a lifetime warranty. Cards produced by High Definition Printing are inherently more durable and secure than other types of cards. They resist wear and tear by putting a durable layer of HDP Film between the card image and the outside world. They’re also tamper evident — if a counterfeiter tries to peel apart the layers, the image essentially destroys itself.

High-quality images without the high price tag
With the Fargo HDP5000 ID Card Printer, ID cards do more than protect your organization — they reflect its pride. HDP5000 produces ID cards with the highest image quality available. By printing a reverse image on the underside of HDP® Film, then fusing the film to the card surface, the Fargo hdp5000 id printer creates an image quality that looks more like a sharp glossy photo than an ordinary ID badge. The Fargo hdp5000 id card printer provides a quality similar to offset litho printing. Printing on film instead of directly on the card means that the uneven surface of technology cards doesn’t compromise image quality. The Fargo hdp 5000 id printer can print up to the edge of smart chip contacts, and over-the-edge of the card.

With the FARGO HDP 5000 ID Printer, the price tag looks as great as the cards it produces. No other photo ID card printer delivers High Definition images at this price point, making the FARGO HDP 5000 ID Printer feasible for a broad range of organizations.
