HID Global Fargo HDP5000 Retransfer Printer
Fargo HID Global presents the HDP5000. HDP stands for High Definition Printing, and that is exactly what you get! With a print resolution of 300dpi these printers can give you near photo quality prints on your cards. The use of retransfer film helps to mask imperfections that could be highlighted by normal direct-to-card printing. This printer is FIPS-201-certified for printing Smart Proximity Access Cards.
Retransfer printing is a little different than the usual Direct to Card (DTC) printing. Specially formulated HDP dye-sublimation ribbons print full-color images onto the underside of clear HDP Film. The HDP Film is then transferred to the card through heat and pressure. HDP printing is a complex, revolutionary technology. Significant engineering energy was exerted to find the perfect combination of color ribbons, clear HDP Film and card materials that work in harmony to create highly durable and consistently excellent quality prints - even on tough-to-print matte finished cards, proximity cards and smart cards!
