The new Helix from Magicard sets the foundation for trusted identity by combining photo-quality printing with a touch screen interface and in-line visual security. Helix is the first retransfer printer on the market that offers built-in visual security, with the ability to apply a secure watermark to each card during the retransfer process. The high-capacity hoppers and consumables of the Helix make it ideal for high-volume printing applications. The Helix will be a new addition to the line up and Magicard currently has no plans to discontinue the Prima 4 printer.
