DTC550 DIRECT-TO-CARD PRINTER/ENCODER

The Fargo DTC550 Direct-to-Card Printer/Encoder is exceptionally hardworking. Its heavy-duty construction makes it the right choice for high-volume card printing and encoding, allowing you to quickly print a variety of cards for multiple applications.

You can even add an extra layer of durability with the optional Lamination Module, and extra security to your cards with holographic Visual Security Solutions™. The DTC550 is versatile, able to deliver the level of personalization and functionality your organization demands. And it's surprisingly simple to use, with easy set up and intuitive operation, including a user-friendly SmartScreen™ to monitor print status.

The DTC550 produces high-quality ID cards using two different Direct-to-Card (DTC®) printing methods: dyesublimation for vivid colors and accurate photographic images, and resin thermal transfer for sharp black text and bar codes that can be easily read by infrared or visible light scanners. You can order the DTC550 with either a singlesided or dual-sided print engine.

With a variety of options, the DTC550 can save you time by printing, read/writing and laminating up to three different e-card technologies — plus magnetic stripe — all in a single pass. And that includes encoding smart cards and reading proximity cards. However your card issuance needs change, the DTC550 can adapt.
