This entry-level system makes professional ID card printing easy and affordable. Perfect for smaller card programs, the system includes the versatile Magicard Pronto ID card printer along with AlphaCard Light photo ID software and printing supplies. Setting up the system is a snap. Within minutes even first-time users will be able to design and print high-quality photo IDs.
The centerpiece of the system is the Magicard Pronto, a compact, single-feed card printer that quickly produces full-color ID cards on demand. The printer fits neatly into any office setting, and is also easily portable. What separates the Pronto from other entry-level card printers is its ability to create highly secure IDs. Using Magicard's patented HoloKote system, the Pronto can apply a secure watermark pattern across the surface of each printed card at no extra cost. Four fixed patterns (wave, rings, keys, and globes) are selectable from the printer driver. The HoloKote watermark helps to protect your cards from tampering and illegal duplication.
Also included with this system is AlphaCard Light photo ID software. AlphaCard Light is an outstanding software package for starter ID programs. It's extremely easy to use, and offers powerful tools for card design and management. The software's intuitive features include pre-defined templates, rich text formatting, conditional design rules and integrated photo capture. It also includes a standalone database that holds up to 200 records.
