Optional dual-sided printing
Dual-sided printing doubles the
printable area of your ID cards.
That means you can put larger photos
on the front, and additional
information, bar codes and digitized
signatures on the back. Dual-sided
printing can also make cards harder
to counterfeit.

SmartLoad™ ribbon cartridge
The DTC400 takes the hassle out of
handling printer supplies. Its
SmartLoad ribbon cartridge combines
the printer ribbon and card-cleaning
roller into one disposable unit.
Just slide in the cartridge, close
the door and you’re done. No feeding
or tearing ribbon rolls, no fumbling
with separate cleaning rollers.

Optional smart card encoding
Comprehensive security applications
frequently combine photo IDs with
some type of technology or “smart”
cards. With optional modules,
Fargo’s Professional Series
printer/encoders can encode up to
three smart card technologies in one
pass: contact and contactless smart
card, magnetic stripe, and proximity
card (read-only).
