WHAT IS HID FARGO CONNECT?

HID® FARGO® Connect™ is a cloudbased card issuance platform that simplifies the complex, bringing together all the elements of a secure card issuance program into a centralized and integrated system. This solution simplifies the operation and support of both local and distributed ID card issuance while increasing control and security.

SECURE AND SIMPLIFIED CARD ISSUANCE POWERED VIA USER FRIENDLY, MULTI-FUNCTIONAL CONSOLE

• Tap into the cloud and take card issuance to the next level —Print and encode cards, troubleshoot and manage card printers—all without ever having to install software or printer drivers.
• Leverage industry-leading security —Built-in security technology elements transform your in-network card printers into trusted end points within the IoTT (Internet of Trusted Things).
• Issue credentials to remote locations with confidence —The Secure Print feature leverages user authentication to the console via username/password or contactless card to securely initiate printing at remote locations.
• Enjoy ease-of-use —A simple, intuitive touchscreen interface and tutorials walk users through all print and management functions with ease.

The HID FARGO Connect Console is a tablet-like, multifunctional appliance with an intuitive, touchscreen interface that turns relatively basic card printers into intelligent edge devices within the IoTT (Internet of Trusted Things). In doing so, this powerful console allows you to securely manage your entire card issuance system from anywhere using any web-enabled device. You can now remotely access and manage your connected HID FARGO printers within the centralized HID FARGO Connect cloudbased application—and without ever having to install additional software or printer drivers—or manage expensive-to-maintain, dedicated desktop PCs.

From within the console's dashboard, you can view and manage network configurations and active print queues allowing you to submit or delete print jobs on-the-fly. The console also automatically detects and displays key information such as printer status or consumable levels—taking the guesswork out of diagnosing common print issues.

Easy-to-understand online tutorials and help are also available at your fingertips. From

day one, even the most novice of users will be able to print and encode cards, manage printers and more.

Built-in security technologies transform your in-network FARGO card printers into secure edge devices—while contactless reader-based user access safeguards against unauthorized system use. The console's Secure Print feature enables users to send print jobs to remote locations and know with certainty that the print job will only execute once a user is there to receive it. Print jobs remain locked down until an authorized recipient operator authenticates to the console via contactless Smart Card or username/password—ensuring IDs and cards remain secure and are never accessible to unauthorized individuals. Ideal for distributed organizations, Secure Print also eliminates the need to ship cards eradicating expensive card shipping fees and security concerns.
