Everything looks better with 
High Definition Printing™.

Colors are vibrant. Images are crisp. Quality is 
second to none. With the Fargo HDP5000, ID 
cards do more than protect your organization 
— they reflect its pride. HDP5000 produces ID 
cards with the highest image quality available. 
By printing a reverse image on the underside 
of HDP

®

 Film, then fusing the film to the card 

surface, the HDP5000 creates an image quality 
that looks more like a sharp glossy photo than 
an ordinary ID badge.

Printing on film instead of directly on the card 
means that the uneven surface of technology 
cards doesn’t compromise image quality. The 
HDP5000 can print up to the edge of smart 
chip contacts, and over-the-edge of the card.

High-quality images without the high 
price tag. 

With the Fargo HDP5000, the price tag 
looks as great as the cards it produces. High 
Definition Printing is the most advanced 
method of card printing available. The 
HDP5000’s image quality far exceeds other 
models, but its cost doesn’t. No other card 
printer delivers High Definition images at this 

price point, making the HDP5000 feasible for a 
broad range of organizations.

Rely on it for more than good looks.

The HDP5000 is exceptionally reliable, which 
means less printer downtime. Because the 
printhead never comes in contact with card 
surfaces or debris, it’s never damaged in the 
printing process. In fact, it carries a lifetime 
warranty.  

Cards produced by High Definition Printing are 
inherently more durable and secure than other 
types of cards. They resist wear and tear by putting 
a durable layer of HDP Film between the card 
image and the outside world. They’re also tamper-
evident — if a counterfeiter tries to peel apart the 
layers, the image essentially destroys itself.

High Definition cards deliver the highest image quality

 

— 

layered on the highest functionality. HDP Film fuses to the surface 
of proximity and smart cards, conforming to ridges and indentations 
formed by embedded electronics.

Modular design grows with your needs.

 

Not sure what your ID card applications will require in the 
future? No problem. The HDP5000 is easily upgraded to 
fit your needs. Start with a basic single-sided unit. Install 
encoding modules. Upgrade to dual-sided printing. Add 
lamination, or simultaneous dual-sided lamination for the 
ultimate in card security and durability.
