Fargo double-sided DTC550 card printer with magnetic stripe encoder



When you need a networkable printer that provides gorgeous, photo-quality printing even in large batches, the Fargo DTC550 color card printer can tackle your biggest print jobs. Perfect for applications from state or local governments, to universities, to healthcare, the DTC550 prints cards at a rate of approximately 35 seconds per double-sided color card. DTC550's double-sided printing capability to add additional information to the back of your cards so that you may equip the front with larger, more easily-visible photos. Plus, the magnetic stripe encoder included with this DTC550 produces high and low-coercivity stripes on tracks 1, 2 and 3 for the most durable stripes possible. Both printing and encoding takes place in a single pass.



Use your secure network connection to your advantage and purchase the optional Ethernet connection, which will allow authorized users to print from anywhere over a network while keeping the printer itself in a secure location. Consider purchasing a lamination module for cards that are more difficult to counterfeit. If you like, you may purchase smart card and/or proximity card encoding modules that are field-upgradeable. If you need options, the DTC550 provides the flexibility you need with the reliability you require.
