HDP 600

There’s simply no better way to produce high security cards with embedded electronics. Today’s security-minded organizations demand cards with superior intelligence and functionality. However, the embedded electronics that make these high-security cards robust also cause irregularities on their surfaces — making them hard to print.

With Fargo’s HDP600 High Definition Card Printer/Encoder, high-security cards are no longer hard to print.
Featuring a patented High Definition Printing™ (HDP®) technology, the HDP 600 is the only card printer/encoder that can consistently and perfectly print, encode and laminate technology-rich ID cards, such as:

• CONTACT SMART CARDS RFID CARDS

• CONTACTLESS SMART CARDS WIEGAND CARDS

• PROXIMITY CARDS OPTICAL CARDS

Don’t compromise when your security is at stake. With traditional dye-sublimation printers, the printhead comes in contact with the card it’s printing. Unfortunately, this means they can’t consistently print on the ridges and indentations caused by internal RFID antenna, integrated circuits and smart chips. Even worse, the card’s electronics can get damaged by, or damage, the printer’s printhead. With High Definition Printing, however, there’s never any contact between the printhead and card. Instead, the HDP-600 prints images onto the underside of the HDP Film, which is then fused to the card through heat and pressure. Now you can consistently print over surface irregularities — even to the edge of smart chips — without damaging the card’s electronics or your printhead.
