Fargo DTC300 User manual

In today’s turbulent world, one thing is certain —
Our commitment to making your organization secure.
Today, more than ever, your organization is at risk.
Fraud. Theft. Counterfeiting. Violence. The truth is, identity-related security
threats like these – internal or external – can affect every organization in the
world, including yours. Unless you address these threats, you’re vulnerable.
And that could cost your organization significant time, money or even lives.
At Fargo, we are passionately dedicated to reducing security vulnerabilities by
continually working to improve the authenticity of the world’s ID cards – starting
with yours. We push ourselves every day to create more and better secure card
identity products, services, processes and technologies.
Customers choose Fargo because we offer the most innovative, comprehensive
and secure card identity systems. As a trusted leader in card identity systems, we
are never satisfied. We are innovative, focused and determined. Because the
reality is, so are the ones we’re out to protect you from.
Fargo Card Printer/Encoders:
The security you need. The simplicity you demand.
Only Fargo offers you the DTC300 and CardJet™C7 Card Printer/Encoders. Each
is designed to make issuing IDs and securing your organization simple. Both are
reliable, easy to operate, and there’s virtually no learning curve or maintenance.
Plus, you can increase productivity by
integrating your new ID cards with
existing time and attendance,
visitor management or
access control systems.
