HDP - High Definition Printing™
High Definition Printing™ uses dye-sublimation technology to print crisp, 300-dpi images on the underside of HDP® Film developed by
The flexible solution for hard-to-print technology cards
High Definition Printing is ideal for printing the most commonly used technology cards, including contact and contactless smart cards, and clamshell proximity cards. The electronics embedded inside these cards often makes the card surface uneven — a problem for conventional dye-sub printing. But in High Definition Printing, the HDP Film flexes over the bumps, giving the card a smooth, even appearance. Since no printhead comes in contact with the card itself, High Definition Printing can also print right up to the edge of exposed smart card contacts. Conventional dye-sub printers must leave clear space around contact pads to avoid print head damage.
Extra security and durability
Fargo HDP Film can be ordered with standard and custom holographic images to give your ID cards an extra layer of security. (CR-80 sized cards only.) If your Fargo HDP printer includes an optional card lamination module, you can make your cards up to 25 times more durable than HDP Film alone with a PolyGuard overlaminate. Overlaminates are also available with standard or custom holographic images.
