DTC1500 Dual-Sided Printer with Lamination
Verify more credential data with dual-sided printing
Duplex printing maximizes on-card credentials by printing on both sides of an ID card. Double-sided printing occurs in a single pass - no need to flip cards over and reload them into the printer!
Laminate cards for higher security and durability
The DTC1500 dual-sided printer with lamination applies a protective layer on the front side of an ID card. An overlaminate is an effective method to fortify anti-fraud properties since the fused film is tamper-resistant. The protective layer will also extend the life of your cards and keep credentials from fading and scratching.
Turn on high-volume output with the drop of a ribbon
Enable high-volume printing without upgrading to expensive models that don?t get used to their full potential. The speedy DTC1500 works with supplies meant for large runs, which means production doesn?t need to stop to swap in new ribbons. A fast print speed further helps productivity - the DTC1500 by Fargo produces 225 single-sided cards per hour!
Create visual and physical card security
The dual-sided DTC1500 with lamination applies a security watermark (a transparent image printed over card credentials) that turns a standard ID card into a counterfeit-resistant badge. Enable password protection to authorize printer operators, then rest easy as your DTC1500 scrambles the imprint on the resin panel to eliminate data theft.
Detailed printing with built-in rewrite
This 300 dpi direct-to-card printer uses a dye-sublimation printing process. Produce highly-accurate colors and images right onto the card surface. Plus, thermal resin transfer helps black text and barcodes look crisp and clear.
The DTC1500 is also great at managing visitor badges and temporary ID cards - just use rewritable cards with the printer?s erase and rewrite function.
Comes standard with USB & Ethernet connectivity
USB 2.0 and Ethernet come standard with the Fargo DTC1500. You may order the Fargo WiFi accessory to enable wireless printing from anywhere, anytime.
Warranties that protect your investment
A three-year manufacturer?s warranty covers printer and printhead repairs. To minimize out-of-pocket costs post-warranty, ID Wholesaler offers TrueSupport coverage plans for your printer.
Optional - encode data and print cards in one pass
With optional inline encoding, you can embed cardholder or company info onto a card, or program cards with access control systems. Encoding is available for magnetic stripes and select contact and contactless smart card technologies.
