Overview

The Magicard 300 is supplied as double-sided (duplex) as standard, giving you the flexibility to print both sides now or later with no extra hardware. Add text, branding, QR codes, and photo IDs with advanced direct-to-card technology: the printhead heats and contacts the card surface for crisp results. Rewritable technology lets you erase and update designs, reducing costs — ideal for medium-sized businesses printing regularly.

Print up to 160 full-colour cards/hour or 720 single-sided monochrome cards/hour to scale production quickly. Optional upgrades include a magnetic-stripe encoder for data on the reverse, or a smart-card encoder for access control via embedded chip.

Holokote® adds anti-fraud watermarks, while digital shredding deletes data after each job to prevent theft.

Setup is quick and user-friendly. Batch print custom designs with the input and output hoppers for hands-off operation. Every Magicard 300 integrates with your network via USB and Ethernet.

Regional chips: UK/EMEA printers use consumables suffixed “/3”. US printers use “/2”.

Extended Warranty

The Magicard 300 comes with a comprehensive 4-year warranty, providing long-term peace of mind and reliable protection for your investment. In addition to this, every Magicard 300 includes email and telephone technical support from a knowledgeable UK-based support team, ensuring that help is always available when you need it.
