Description

Fargo by HID® HDP6600 Dual-Sided ID Card Printer (Base Model)

The Fargo by HID® HDP6600 Dual-Sided ID Card Printer is built for organizations that need fast, secure, high-definition credential printing on both sides of the card. Designed for professional ID programs, the HDP6600 uses advanced 600 dpi retransfer printing to produce sharp text, vibrant images, and true edge-to-edge coverage on employee badges, access cards, student IDs, healthcare credentials, membership cards, and secure smart cards.

As a cost-effective, eco-conscious, and highly reliable solution, the HDP6600 delivers impressive production speed, exceptional print quality, and long-term flexibility. HID’s patent-pending iON™ technology allows the printer to reach optimal operating temperature in under 60 seconds, helping accelerate both the retransfer and lamination processes while improving overall efficiency.

Dual-Sided Printing for More Complete Credentials

The dual-sided HDP6600 allows organizations to print full-color card designs on the front while adding important information to the back, such as employee details, barcodes, emergency instructions, return information, disclaimers, contact numbers, or access control data. This makes it an excellent choice for organizations that need more card real estate without sacrificing professional image quality.

What Is Retransfer Printing?

The HDP6600 does not print directly onto the card. Instead, it prints the card image onto a clear transfer film that is permanently fused to the card using heat and pressure. This process creates vibrant edge-to-edge images, longer-lasting credentials, and excellent results on smart cards, proximity cards, and other uneven card surfaces.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes retransfer printing different?
The HDP6600 prints your design onto a clear transfer film instead of directly onto the card. The film is then fused to the card, creating smooth, durable, edge-to-edge results.

Why choose a dual-sided printer?
A dual-sided printer is ideal when you need information on both sides of the card, such as a photo and name on the front with a barcode, policy text, emergency information, or access details on the back.

Can the HDP6600 print on smart cards?
Yes. Retransfer printing is especially effective for smart cards, proximity cards, contactless cards, and other credentials with uneven surfaces.

Can encoding be added later?
Yes. Multiple field-upgradable encoder options are available for one-step inline printing and encoding.

Does this base model include lamination?
No. This is the dual-sided base printer model. Lamination is available with compatible upgraded configurations or modules.
