Never hassle with ribbons or card cleaning again.Anyone who s ever operated an ID card printer knows the frustration: hard-to-load ribbons, separate card cleaning mechanisms and confusing indicator lights. The DTC400e eliminates these hassles with simplified materials handling and a user-friendly interface. An all-in-one ribbon cartridge combines the printer ribbon and card cleaning roller into one cartridge. Just slide it into the DTC400e and you re done. The LCD control panel replaces blinking indicator lights, giving you easy-to-follow prompts and commands so you ll always know the status of your DTC400e.
Easily adapts to changing ID card needs.By using different card technologies, card types and ribbons, the Fargo DTC400e delivers a high level of flexibility. Personalize blank cards with full-color, edge-to-edge images. Print thin, flexible cards or conventional thickness smart cards on the same DTC400e. By choosing the right options, you can configure your DTC400e to match your ID cardproduction requirements:
Produce cards both flexible and smart.The Fargo DTC400e is versatile enough to print and encode a wide range of card types, from 9 mil thin ID cards all the way up to 40 mil clamshell proximity cards and smart cards with embedded electronics. That means your DTC400e is ready to produce cards for your current ID and access control needs, and whatever applications you might add in the future. Thin plastic cards, for example, are gaining popularity for use in health care, mass transit systems, highway tolls, parking, membership and customer loyalty programs. Because the cards are thin, flexible and lightweight, they re easy to mail, attach to a patient s chart or slip into a wallet. And every DTC400e can produce great-looking thin cards without add-ons or modifications.
The solution for short-lived cards.Many cards are only used for hours or days, then thrown away. The DTC400e helps eliminate the waste of short-lived cards such as visitor badges or transit passes with the ability to erase and rewrite cards multiple times. Rewritable cards make new ID applications possible, such as: customer loyalty cards with updated point totals, library cards with current due dates, personalized IDs for volunteers, student IDs with schedule information and many more. And while rewritable printing is monochromatic, cards can be preprinted in full color so there s no compromising appearance quality. Since the printing on rewritable cards is easily changed, they should not be used for secure ID applications.
Versatility plus simplicity equals value.Whether you need employee access cards foa mid-sized company or membership cards fora video store, the Fargo DTC400e packs a lot of value into a compact card printer/encoder.
