When you depend on your ID cards for more than a name and a photo,
depend on the capability and efficiency of the Fargo HDP5000.


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 ultifunction 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 HDP5000 High Definition Card Printer/Encoder.

Improvements you’ll see in every card.

Secure access control cardsFargo introduced High Definition Printing™ (HDP®) technology in 1999, and we’ve been advancing the technology ever since. It produces High Definition cards that give you outstanding print quality over embedded electronics, plus high durability and security— the ideal way to produce prox and smart cards.

The HDP5000 printer/encoder is our fastest, most efficient HDP model ever, with improvements at every level. Simpler operation requires only minimal training. Cards, ribbons and overlaminates now come in cartridges that literally load in a snap. 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.

Add dual-sided durability and security — fast.

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. Since the lamination module has 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.

The beauty of High Definition Printing runs deep.

High Definition Security CardID cards should reflect your organization’s pride, and the HDP5000 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 HDP5000 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.

Build a complete card identity system.

The HDP5000 serves as the central component of a complete card identity system, which includes software, materials, cameras and accessories.

Software: The HDP5000 works with Fargo Asure ID® applications, and all other leading card creation and issuance management software. It comes with Fargo Workbench,™ a software toolkit for setup, printer
security, diagnostics and firmware upgrades.

Secure Materials: The High Definition Printing materials for the HDP5000 deliver more durability and fade resistance than previous HDP formulations. That means fewer card replacements, and lower cost per card. Fargo Secure Materials let you set the level of card security, up to high-security custom holographic overlaminates and HDP Film on both sides of the card.

Cameras and accessories: Fargo offers a selection of digital cameras, photo lighting equipment and backgrounds, and card accessories.
