Built for professionals, Magicard's Limited Edition Rio Pro printers are quality-made and feature-rich. Ideal for mid- to high-volume card printing on standard CR80-size cards, the Rip Pro LE can be used to print visitor badges, employee IDs, membership cards, loyalty cards, student ID cards and more. Choose between single- and dual-sided printing, and add optional encoding if desired.
Most Magicard printers, including the Limited Edition Rio Pro, come equipped with Magicard's patented HoloKote and HoloFlex technology. Magicard HoloKote/HoloFlex is an optional, transparent watermarking feature added during the regular printing process for enhanced security.
Features and Benefits of the Limited Edition Rio Pro:
• Batch printing and single-card printing modes
• Dye-sublimation printing for vivid images and thermal resin printing for sharp black text and barcodes
• Built-in USB and Ethernet for printing over a network
• Encoding options for writing electronic data to your cards
• Includes an exclusive HoloFlex watermark that replaces one standard HoloKote to distinguish cards printed by your Limited Edition printer from card printed by other Magicard printers, plus a voucher for a FREE custom HoloKote or HoloFlex order!
• A three-year manufacturer warranty on printer and printhead, plus three years of loaner coverage.
It depends on how much information you need to put on your cards. For example, if you will only be placing the cardholder's photo and name on your cards, the single-sided Rio Pro 360 LE may be ideal for you. However, if you need to display more robust information on your cards, we recommend the dual-sided Rio Pro 360 LE.
With Magicard, Upgrading from Simplex to Duplex Printing is Easy
If you need to add duplex printing to your single-sided Rio Pro 360 LE in the future, you can quickly and easily upgrade your printer with a simple drop-in dual-sided printing upgrade kit! The upgrade kit includes a special roll of YMCKOK film that is recognized by your Magicard printer to enable two-sided card printing. This industry-first upgrade technology requires no additional hardware or tools; just drop in the ribbon kit and your printer does the rest!
HoloKote and HoloFlex are patented visual security elements exclusive to select Magicard ID card printer models. HoloKote refers to a single image or graphic watermark that is repeated across the card surface, whereas HoloFlex refers to a image or graphic that spans the entire card surface or a specified area. HoloKote and HoloFlex technology is built into your Magicard printer, and watermarks are applied during the standard card printing cycle using the "O" panel of a YMCKO color ribbon - so, there's no need to purchase additional supplies. HoloKote and HoloFlex technology can be easily enabled or disabled in your printer driver.
When using the HoloKote/HoloFlex option in the Limited Edition Rio Pro printer, you may select one of the three standard patterns to apply across your card: waves, keys, or globes. The Rio Pro 360 LE also includes a custom-designed HoloFlex exclusive to Magicard Limited Edition printers that can be applied to the surface of your cards to further distinguish them, as well as a voucher for a FREE custom HoloKote or HoloFlex.
Note: When HoloKote is used along with Magicard HoloPatch cards, one area of the watermark becomes a high-visibility security seal with an appearance similar to a holographic patch, at a fraction of the cost.
At first glance, you will notice that the Limited Edition Rio Pro has an updated white and black exterior, unlike the standard edition, which is white and gray. But, while they do look slightly different, the two printers are actually nearly identical in terms of performance. Both the standard and the Limited Edition Rio Pro come with USB and Ethernet connectivity, offer optional encoding, and are fully equipped to handle a variety of mid- to high-volume card printing applications. So, how are they different?
The most notable difference between the two editions is that the Rio Pro 360 LE offers superior antifraud technology for your printed cards, protecting them against unwanted counterfeiture while lending them a more distinguished appearance. Magicard’s patented HoloKote technology is built right into select Magicard printers, including both the standard and limited editions of the Rio Pro. An optional watermarking feature, HoloKote can be added during the standard printing process to produce a hologram-like image on your cards.
While the standard edition comes with four standard HoloKote designs common to all Magicard printers with HoloKote technology, the Limited Edition Rio Pro includes three of the four standard Magicard HoloKote watermark designs, plus a customized “HoloFlex” watermark exclusive to Magicard’s limited edition printers and an in-box voucher to create your very own customized HoloKote or HoloFlex (a value of up to $650)! With custom laminate origination fees for other printers costing up to $10,000, Magicard’s HoloKote and HoloFlex bring you affordable card security and enhanced design that comes with no additional supplies costs.
