With its affordable price and decade of reliability, the HID Global FARGO HDP5000 dual-sided ID card printer is one of the most popular models for applications of all sizes. High-definition retransfer printing produces superior print quality in ID badges especially those with embedded electronics, resulting in more impressive and professional ID cards. Producing full colors, dual-sided ID badges per hour, and an easy-to-read SmartScreen LCD panel, the HDP5000 produces high-quality cards, from an easy-to-manage printer.

Simple operation requires only minimal training, and cards, ribbons drop into cartridges that load in a snap. Fargo printer ribbons include cleaning rollers with them, so every time you load a new ribbon, you’ll be performing printer maintenance! HDP film provides extra durability and protection to cards, protecting them from everyday wear-and-tear, and cards made with HDP film are highly tamper-evident, as any attempts at peeling apart the layers of a card, will ultimately result in its image being destroyed.

The versatile modular design of the HDP5000 changes with your needs, and can easily be upgraded to perform single, or dual-sided lamination ID card printing with the HDP5000 LC as well as card encoding technologies. Includes built-in Ethernet connectivity, and backed by a lifetime printhead warranty, and 3-year warranty on the entire printer.
