HID Global®, a worldwide leader in secure identity solutions, recently announced the availability of its latest Direct-to-Card (DTC®) FARGO® DTC5500LMX ID Card Printer/Encoder designed to meet the high-volume, card issuance demands of large government agencies, universities, healthcare facilities and other large enterprises. The company also announced its new FARGO HDP5600 ID Card Printer/Encoder that builds upon its award-winning high definition printing (HDP®) solutions for retail stores, recreation facilities, governments and other organisations focused on brand image and/or visual security.

HID Global’s eco-friendly DTC5500LMX ID card personalisation solution includes the company’s “wasteless” lamination technology that significantly lowers card issuance costs. The new feature enables cost-conscious organizations to routinely issue secure, durable cards in high volumes without sacrificing quality.

  • Innovative wasteless lamination technology completely eliminates traditional carrier-film waste, offering a 40 percent savings in consumables costs.
  • World’s first Green Circle® certified wasteless lamination printer with 60 percent savings in energy consumption.
  • New iONTM technology allows printer / laminator to heat up and initiate lamination in just 45 seconds, saving users up to 80 percent of the time typically needed to print the first card.
  • Rugged, durable and robust construction that withstands the harshest environments, providing the highest card protection and warranty in the industry.
  • See more details in the new Model of Efficiency infographic.

The new FARGO HDP5600 ID Card Printer/Encoder delivers the highest quality for image and text printing available in the market.
