CardJet Printing Technology is a quiet and highly dependable method of ID card personalization.

Using a specialized HP inkjet-based print engine, Fargo CardJet Printers transfer color and monochrome inks to specially formulated CR-80 CardJet Cards. A thermal inkjet printing process heats the ink, generating vapor bubbles ejected in small drops through nozzles in the CardJet Ink Cartridge.

Drops are precisely placed on specially coated CardJet Cards to form text and images. CardJet Ink bonds and dries instantly, producing full-color, 600 dpi images that run over the edge of cards.

The technology of choice for HID prox cards
CardJet Series printers are the printers of choice for HID proximity cards.

CardJet printers don't have a print head. Instead, they use an innovative print jet that never touches the card. The result is maximum image quality across the card's entire uneven surface.
