This means you can produce up to 514 cards per hour in black-only mode or 102 cards per hour with lamination applied.

Yes, the DTC550 is a dual-sided card printer that supports single- and dual-sided printing for text, logos, bar codes, signatures, and photos in full-color. This makes it ideal for enterprises that need to maximize card real estate for security features, employee information, or cardholder data on both sides of the ID card.

The Fargo DTC550 comes with an E-Card Docking Station featuring contact smart card encoding with USB interface. The printer also supports optional ISO magnetic stripe encoding, allowing you to add multiple layers of security and functionality to your ID cards depending on your enterprise requirements.

The DTC550 features flexible connectivity with both USB 1.1 (USB 2.0 compatible) and an optional 10BASE-T Ethernet port with an internal print server. The Ethernet capability allows you to install the printer anywhere on your LAN for centralized or distributed ID card issuance across large corporations, service bureaus, or educational institutions without network compromise.

The DTC550 offers an optional Card Lamination Module that provides durability against swipe abrasion, prevents dye-migration, and shields against image-fading UV light. If your application requires secure cards that resist forgery and tampering or if cards are subject to extra physical wear, the lamination option is available to enhance card longevity and security.

The DTC550 operates in temperatures between 65° to 80° F (18° to 27° C) with humidity levels of 20-80% non-condensing. The printer requires 100-240 VAC power supply at 3.3A and operates at both 50 Hz and 60 Hz frequencies, making it suitable for deployment in standard office and enterprise environments.
