The Fargo 89203 is an internal encoding module that adds contactless smart card capability to your single-sided Fargo HDP5000 or HDP5600 printer. Built around the OMNIKEY 5121 reader, it handles iCLASS, MIFARE, and DESFire encoding — the technologies most commonly used in access control and secure ID programmes across Ireland and Europe.
Rather than managing a separate desktop encoder alongside your printer, this module integrates directly into the HDP5000 or HDP5600, keeping the encoding process in-line with card production. One pass, one device, one workflow. It's the kind of upgrade that pays for itself in reduced handling time and fewer points of failure.
Includes one OMNIKEY 5121 encoder module. Compatible with single-sided Fargo HDP5000 and HDP5600 printers only — this module will not function in dual-sided configurations of these printers.
