Fargo DTC525 Printer
The FARGO DTC525 Duplex Card Printer is designed to make you and your cards look their best, and offers the features you need for high-volume or on-demand applications.
FARGO's DTC525 card printer is expertly engineered -- yet surprisingly simple. With the Fargo DTC525 printer, you can print longer without refilling consumables such as cards and ribbons. The Fargo DTC525 card printer comes with Dual Card Input Hoppers that hold up to 200 cards. With the automated dual hoppers, you can easily print two different types of cards -- even cards with different thicknesses. Plus, the long-lasting, drop-in ribbons let you print up to three times as many cards as competitive printers.
The DTC525 offers the option of adding single or double-sided lamination -- even after you've purchased your printer! You can order a DTC525-LC with the Dual-Sided Lamination Module factory-installed. Or, order a standard DTC525 card printer, and add the module when your needs change.
The Fargo DTC525 models also feature a security package that includes a Card Hopper Lock to protect valuable cards, FARGO's exclusive SmartGuard Printer Security, and SmartShield� Card Security technology.

* Print speed indicates an approximate batch print speed and is measured from the time a card feeds into the printer to the time it ejects from the printer. Print speeds do not include the time needed for the PC to process the image. Process time for the Fargo DTC525 is dependent of the size of the file, the CPU, amount of RAM and the amount of available resources at the time of the print.
