Frequently Asked Questions
What card encoding options does the Fargo DTC4500e support?
The Fargo DTC4500e includes ISO Magnetic Stripe Encoding and supports multiple RFID card technologies through the integrated Omnikey Cardman 5127 reader, including HID iCLASS SE, iCLASS, MIFARE/DESFire, and HID PROX. This makes it ideal for organizations requiring secure credential encoding on a single device. Contact us today to discuss your specific encoding requirements.
Can the DTC4500e print on both sides of ID cards?

It also includes a single-sided lamination module to add durability and security features to your printed credentials. We offer this model as a complete solution for high-volume ID card production.
How does the high-capacity ribbon benefit my card printing operation?
The DTC4500e's high-capacity ribbons enable you to print twice as many full-color cards compared to most standard printers before ribbon replacement is needed. This reduces downtime, lowers consumable costs, and ensures continuous high-quality card printing for high-volume environments.
