The HDP5000 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.

Improvements you’ll see in every card.
Fargo introduced High Definition Printing in
1999, and we’ve been advancing the technology
ever since. The HDP5000 is the most affordably
priced HDP model ever. It’s also the fastest and
most efficient, with improvements at every level.
Simpler operation requires only minimal training.
Cards, ribbons and overlaminates literally load in
a snap via the cartridge-based system. Sharper
image quality and new HDP materials deliver
more impressive cards at a lower cost per card.
And faster printing helps you fly through the
biggest production jobs.

Applying a holographic overlaminate or
holographic HDP Film to the front of an
ID card improves its durability and security.
An overlaminate on both sides doubles the
protection. The HDP5000 laminates both sides
of a card simultaneously in one efficient pass.

An overlaminate on both sides doubles the
protection. The HDP5000 laminates both sides
of a card simultaneously in one efficient pass.
Since the lamination module needs no card
flipper, it doesn’t waste time by turning a
card over and laminating it again. Saving a few
seconds per card may not sound like much.
But multiplied by a 5,000- or 10,000-card
production run, the savings are substantial.

Produce High Definition cards anywhere.
Card production is no longer limited to
stand-alone badging stations. A retail chain,
for example, can distribute card issuance over
a network to any location. On a corporate
campus or university, an array of printer/
encoders can be set up in a central location for
high-volume production. The HDP5000 is the
ideal choice for countless scenarios. Its Ethernet
port and internal print server provide the
connectivity needed for networked operations.

Modular design grows with your needs.
Not sure what your ID card applications will require in the
future? No problem. The HDP5000 is easily upgraded to
fit your needs. Start with a basic single-sided unit. Install
encoding modules. Upgrade to dual-sided printing. Add
lamination, or simultaneous dual-sided lamination for the
ultimate in card security and durability.
