High Definition Materials
HID Global provides a variety of HDP materials and accessories to optimize the performance of your Fargo© HDP5000 and HDPii printer/encoders.
- HDP Print Ribbons and Film: High Definition Printing™ ribbons and HDP Film combine to produce virtually tamperproof and durable cards with crisp, 300 dpi images - even on the surface of technology cards.
- Cards: Video-grade PVC UltraCard™ card stock with polished, scratch- and debris-reduced surfaces optimize the quality of your printed images.
- Overlaminates: Applying an overlaminate to your cards not only improves durability, it greatly increases the security of the card. Overlaminates with standard or custom holograms create an ID card that is difficult to forge, yet easy to verify.
- Secure Proprietary Consumables: Elevate the security of your large ID project. Create a proprietary link between printers and consumables to help mitigate the risk of fraudulent production.
