Identity solution company HID has launched its next-generation FARGO HDP5000e card printer that is designed to deliver vibrant, high definition cards and IDs.
Building on the HDP5000 printer series and proven retransfer technology over the last 25 years, the HID FARGO HDP5000e ID card printer is the next iteration which HID says will redefine the standards of reliability, usability and printing excellence.
The new printer is designed for universities, medium-to-large businesses, healthcare facilities and government agencies that need retransfer printing technology to personalise contactless cards and for any organisation looking to switch from a higher-end, direct-to-card printer to a retransfer printing solution for improved image quality.
The new FARGO HDP5000e delivers:
-
High-level performance: With an increased card throughput and greater Ethernet speed than its HDP5000-series predecessors, the HDP5000e also boasts an advanced electronics platform, ensuring faster and more precise control over the printing process, resulting in crisper text and more vivid imagery. Additionally, the printer’s enhanced memory and processing capabilities allow for more efficient handling of print jobs, especially in high-volume environments.
-
Exceptional reliability: From its reinforced connection points to its streamlined module attachment, the HDP5000e is designed for dependability inside and out. The printer’s connectivity reinforcements strengthen and protect USB, Ethernet and power cable connection points, while the printer’s streamlined module attachment helps eliminate common issues such as internal card jams and misalignment.
-
Usability enhancements at every turn: The HDP5000e’s user-friendly SmartScreen interface in high-definition, graphical OLED provides easy-to-understand notifications and helpful, walk-through prompts for setup, maintenance and troubleshooting. The printer’s Workbench diagnostic utility with its Colour Assist spot-colour matching tool is built into the printer driver so users have immediate access to everything they need via a single driver download. Should maintenance be required, the HDP5000e’s design allows for easy access to the card path, main board, and film and ribbon drawer assemblies without the need for tools or special expertise.
-
Security from end to end: The printer’s unique and inclusive resin scramble data protection feature effectively scrambles and subsequently conceals information printed with a resin panel. Used ribbon panels are thus rendered indecipherable, safeguarding cardholder data from fraudulent use. Moreover, the HDP5000e includes built-in AES-256 data encryption, support for UV printing and offers optional locks for additional peace of mind.
