Description

Discover a smarter, faster way to issue secure, professional ID cards with the Fargo HDP5000 Dual-Sided Printing Module. This high-precision upgrade is designed to snap into your existing Fargo HDP5000 printer, unlocking true dual-sided printing in a single pass. By combining Fargo’s renowned HDP technology with seamless integration, this module delivers enhanced branding, improved security features, and outstanding durability for every card you issue. Ideal for schools, enterprises, healthcare, government offices, and security-conscious organizations, it turns everyday badge production into a streamlined, reliable operation.

  • Dual-sided printing in a single pass for maximum efficiency: The HDP5000 Dual-Sided Printing Module enables front-and-back personalization without pausing to flip cards or reload media. This means faster card issuance, fewer handling errors, and consistent, synchronized branding on both sides of every card. By eliminating one or more manual steps, you can increase throughput during peak issuance times such as enrollment periods, onboarding, events, and large-scale visitor programs.

    With two-sided capability built into the printer, you can present more information—photos, names, titles, department logos, security features, and verification cues—on a single card while maintaining a clean, professional appearance across your badge suite.

  • Exceptional HDP quality for durable, high-clarity cards: Fargo’s HDP technology is designed to deliver sharp text, vibrant colors, and precise image rendering with excellent fade resistance. The dual-sided module ensures consistent print definition on both faces, supporting secure data presentation, microtext, UV features, and secure holograms where needed. The result is badges that not only look professional but also endure daily wear in busy environments.

    This superior print fidelity helps organizations communicate authority and trust, while reducing the need for reprints due to print defects. It’s an ideal choice for official IDs, access cards, and membership badges that rely on legible data and clear branding.

  • Seamless compatibility and a straightforward upgrade path: Engineered for the Fargo HDP5000 printer, this module integrates with your existing hardware and software ecosystem. The upgrade minimizes downtime and avoids the need for a new machine, making it a cost-effective solution for organizations seeking enhanced capability without a full system replacement. Compatibility with common HDP ribbons and media ensures you can maintain a consistent supply chain during the transition.

    Installation is designed to be user-friendly for IT staff and experienced administrators, with clear documentation and tested integration steps to ensure a smooth rollout.

  • Efficiency, cost savings, and operational ease in daily card issuance: By printing both sides in one pass, the module reduces production time, labor costs, and handling errors. This translates into faster card issuance at busy service counters, better throughput for large cohorts, and lower per-card operational costs. Organizations can allocate staffing resources more effectively, accelerate onboarding, and scale badge programs to meet growing demand.

    Additionally, the dual-sided design enables more space for security features and compliance data—without sacrificing card aesthetics. The result is a more secure, higher-value credential program that customers, employees, and visitors will trust.

  • Versatility across applications for varied credential programs: The dual-sided capability is well-suited for a wide range of card programs—from employee IDs with access levels to visitor passes and event credentials. Front-side branding and essential information, paired with back-side security codes, barcodes, or QR data, provide a comprehensive credential that supports rapid verification and robust record-keeping. This flexibility makes the module a strong fit for educational institutions, corporate campuses, healthcare facilities, and government agencies with evolving security requirements.

    Whether you need magnetic stripe data, smart chip compatibility, or standard optical data on the reverse, this module helps you design cards that balance aesthetics, readability, and security across all users.
