Unleash the potential of smart cards

Access control. Financial transactions. Biometric identification. Medical records management. Your ID card may hang at the end of a lanyard, but that’s not where its potential ends. Government agencies, large corporations and financial institutions are all tapping into the power of ID card technology, from proximity cards to multifunction smart cards.

These card-based applications demand more capable, durable and secure ID cards than ever before. That means prox and smart cards produced in high definition by the Fargo HDP600 High Definition Card Printer/Encoder.

The beauty of High Definition Printing runs deep

ID cards should reflect your organization’s pride, and the HDP600 produces ID cards with the highest image quality available — High Definition cards.

By printing a reverse image on the underside of HDP Film, then fusing the film to the card surface, the HDP600 creates an image quality that looks more like a crisp glossy photo than an ordinary ID badge. High Definition Printing has big advantages beyond good looks. Printing on film instead of directly on the card means that the uneven surface of technology cards can’t affect image quality, or damage print heads. The HDP5000 can print up to the edge of smart chip contacts, and over-the-edge of the card. 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 very secure and tamper-evident. If a counterfeiter tries to peel apart the layers, the image essentially destroys itself.
