FEATURES

The finest direct - to - card print quality available.

It is the most versatile and compact solution for printing, encoding and laminating plastic cards.

The DTC 500 Series is expertly engineered, yet surprising simple. These versatile printer/encoders feature rugged reliability, ease of use and quiet performance.

DTC 500 Series is powered by a compact version of Fargo’s proven, high-performance print engine which satisfies high-volume or on-demand applications.

User-friendly features make creating cards a snap. Plug – and - print operation with almost any PC.

Easy installation with interactive printer-driver installer CD

Fast and highly versatile: Prints 133 color cards — or over 500 monochrome cards — per hour.

A wealth of user-friendly innovations

SmartScreen LCD panel displays intuitive prompts and text to guide user and helpful messages such as when to add cards and change ribbon.

Removable Tape-based Card Cleaning System cleans far more cards than other cleaning systems. Saves time and money and improves print quality.

Factory-installed or field-upgradeable Card lamination module: adds durability and security

Fargo’s PolyGuard™ Overlaminate 25 times more card protection than standard protective overlays

Exclusive new technologies: “Smart” security package

SmartShield™ Card Security allows verification of card’s authenticity. Restricts access to unauthorized users by requiring a custom access card, or “key”, to print cards.

Smart Shield Card Security: Custom transparent security images printed over the top of any card design. Images fluoresce under ultraviolet (UV) lighting and are visible when viewed at an angle under normal lighting.

Card Hopper Lock helps prevent theft of valuable and expensive card stocks- preprinted, smart or holographic cards.

Dual, auto-switching card input hoppers: Accommodate up to 200 of the same type of card, or 100-card stacks of different card types in each hopper. The printer/encoder automatically switches between the hoppers, as needed.

Memory: 4 MB RAM

Accepted Card Thickness: Prints edge – to – edge onto standard CR-80 cards from 10 mil to 50 mil thick.

Long - lasting monochrome ribbon prints up to 3,000 cards — far more than competitive printers.

The long lasting, drop-in ribbons let you print up to three times as many cards as competitive printers.

Encoding: No other direct-to-card printer can match the encoding capability of the DTC 500 Series. Encodes/reads up to three different e-card technologies, plus magnetic stripes — all in a single pass! It can print and encode standard-sized e-cards, including contact and contactless smart cards, and thick, “clamshell” proximity cards (read only).

Access door with window lets you view remaining card supply, while keeping blank cards dust-free.

True Exception Card Feed allows you to manually feed and print a single card without interrupting printer/encoder operation.

Adjustable Card Flattener eliminates card bowing.

Reject Card Hopper: The DTC 525-LC identifies errors and sends incomplete or improperly encoded cards to the reject hopper.
