Fargo Persona Series Printers:

The Persona Series Printers are recommended
for low security applications such as VIP and Customer Loyalty
Cards, Library, Employee ID for small companies,
club memberships, etc.
The C16 (single side printing) and C25 (dual
side printing) are recommended. These units have more "user-friendly"
displays, which should translate into better
productivity.
For the above applications with larger volumes
(more than 5000 cards / year) the DTC500 series printers is
also a good choice. The DTC500 series is designed to
print longer with having to refill card and ribbon supplies.
This reduces time required for printing larger volumes.
