Features of Fargo Printers

Fargo Printer Automatic Dual Card Hoppers	Fargo printers 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	Save time: high-volume card capacity means fewer print interruptions Streamline printing operations that use multiple types of cards (thin adhesive-backed; snap-apart key fobs; e-cards)
Automatic Card Cleaning Systems	A two-stage cleaning system on Fargo printers that cleans both blank cards and cleaning rollers inside the plastic card printer, and cleans over 10 times as many cards as conventional systems	Increase card quality and operator satisfaction: Clean cards help keep printer/encoder and printhead functioning smoothly Save time: fewer cleaning intervals Save money: few card print quality issues, few wasted supplies and printheads

Magnetic Encoding	Dual high- and low-coercivity encoder options for Fargo badge makers. The higher the coercivity of the stripe, the harder it is to encode — and erase — information	Controls access to facilities Automatically stores access history or employment hours Allows updates of data over time without an overhaul of entire system
Lamination	The process of using heat and pressure to apply a laminate over the surface of a plastic card to protect the printed image from wear and fading	Protects cards from abrasion and fading Protects cards from tampering and counterfeiting Overlaminates with custom holograms add a high level of security to cards
