Genuine Fargo PRO-L printhead

The KDE-57-12MGL2-FAR2 printhead is a genuine Fargo replacement part built for the PRO-L ID card printer. It restores reliable direct-to-card printing for identification badges, access cards and membership credentials. Buyers who need a printhead for any other Fargo model or a different brand should select a different part.

Simple drop-in installation

The unit seats directly into the PRO-L print carriage without tools or firmware updates. Alignment pins guide the head into position and the ribbon cable locks with a single press. The most common error is forcing the connector before the latch clicks, which can bend pins and prevent the printer from recognising the new head.

Part number KDE-57-12MGL2-FAR2

This exact part number confirms compatibility with the Fargo PRO-L ID card printer. If your printer label shows a different part number, this printhead will not fit or function correctly.
