An effective and affordable first layer of defense

The DTC400 Series printer/encoder is designed to help you easily and affordably produce secure plastic ID cards that pose tough challenges to would-be counterfeiters. Fargo Secure HoloMark™ and VeriMark™ cards provide a highly effective first line of defense. These cards feature a tamper-resistant, instantly verifiable foil, permanently embedded on each card, which dramatically increases card security compared to unmarked, easily replicated white cards.

Both HoloMark and VeriMark cards are compatible with DTC400 Series printer/encoders.
