  • (500) CR8030 graphic quality PVC cards

All our systems are comprised by changeable components that have been preselected by our ID Experts. You can customize your system by configuring your Fargo DTC1500 card printer, adding one of our TrueSupport plans, or upgrading your software, cards, or other system components in the 'Options' tab before checkout.

Fargo DTC1500 Dual-sided Printer

The dual-sided Fargo DTC1500 is competitively priced and offers robust printing capabilities, several of which are unique to this model. This modularly designed direct-to-card printer can be upgraded in the field on an as-needed basis; add encoding, Wi-Fi, or single-sided lamination post-purchase without factory assistance. Plus, the DTC1500 is GreenCircle® certified and supports Fargo's cost-effective high-capacity consumables, so you can maintain a low cost of ownership with a clean conscience.

  • Affordable, high-capacity printing
    Made for the reliable production of durable and secure credentials, the Fargo DTC1500 uses Fargo's low-cost, high-capacity print ribbons. Enjoy an average production cost-per-card that is lower than that of competing dual-sided printers without sacrificing print quality or speed. The DTC1500 performs at 300 DPI (industry standard) and has an output of 150 dual-sided cards per hour and 100-card capacity hoppers.

  • Theft-proof security features and printing capabilties
    Armed with password-protected printer operation, AES data encryption, and Fargo's own resin scramble feature, the DTC1500 card printer helps ensure that your card printing program runs safely and smoothly without unauthorized use or data theft. Resin scramble obscures "K" panel text by shifting the panel between print passes.

    You can also use the dual-sided DTC1500 printer to add a custom transparent watermark design to your cards at no additional production cost. No need to invest in additional equipment, foil cards, or supplies - Fargo's watermark feature uses the overlay or "O" panel of a standard YMCKO ribbon.

  • Flexible design supports post-purchase field upgrades
    The DTC1500 51405 dual-sided printer is scalable and accepts Fargo's user-installable field upgrades, which include a single-sided lamination module and various encoding modules. Configure your system printer to meet your initial printing needs with the knowledge that you can install upgrades easily in-house if and when your program requirements change.

  • Built-in printer pooling capability with Ethernet and USB
    Standard with both USB and Ethernet, the DTC1500 51405 card printer can be accessed remotely by multiple computers across a local area network (LAN). Plus, it's compatible with Fargo's DTC Wi-Fi Accessory (sold separately), so you can easily add wireless connectivity to your printer at any time.

  • Three-year manufacturer's warranty - with optional extension
    The direct-to-card DTC1500 printer includes an industry-leading three-year warranty from Fargo that covers the printer and printhead (with unlimited passes if used with HID Fargo UltraCard card stock). Additionally, ID Zone offers TrueSupport coverage plans handled in-house by our Fargo-trained technical support team that include toll-free email support , and fast turn-around .

Upgrade and Customization Options


The following features are available as post-purchase upgrades (sold separately), or are configuration options that can be added to your printer within the options tab before checkout:

  • Single-sided lamination (sold separately)
    Add single-sided lamination to your cards for additional security and extended card life with Fargo's user-installable laminator module. You may add lamination to your dual-sided DTC1500 at any time, or see the Fargo DTC1500 Dual-Sided ID System with Lamination.

  • Card encoding
    The dual-sided DTC1500 Fargo printer is configurable and offers user-installable modules for magnetic stripe encoding, contact or contactless smart card encoding, and proximity card encoding.
