When a Magicard printer will not show up, the printer itself is almost never broken. In our support cases it is nearly always one of these: Bodno is pointed at the wrong copy of the printer, Bodno is out of date, or the driver did not install cleanly. Work from the top; most people are printing again by fix 3.
Update Bodno, then pick the printer that shows as ready under File › Print Settings. Still missing? Remove every Magicard printer from Windows, restart, and reinstall the driver from your printer's support page.
Fix it in this order
Use the USB cable that came with the printer, plugged straight into the computer, and try a different USB port. Plug the printer into a wall outlet. Turn it on and wait until the screen or light says it is ready.
Windows sometimes adds extra copies, like "Magicard 300 (Copy 1)". Only one of them is connected.
Choose the copy that Windows shows as ready, not offline.
If Bodno shows a message like "error enumerating the printer", it has blocked it. Go to:
Restart Bodno, then pick the printer again in File › Print Settings. More detail: unblock a blocked printer.
Unplug the USB cable. Open the printer list:
(or Control Panel › Devices and Printers). Remove every Magicard printer, restart the computer, turn the printer on and plug the USB cable back in. Windows finds it again.
Unplug the USB cable. Uninstall everything named Magicard (Settings › Apps), then restart. Download the latest driver from your printer's support page (table below), run it, and connect the USB cable only when the installer asks you to. You need administrator rights; if it asks for a password or fails with error 2502, ask your IT team. Old drivers still hanging around? Remove printer drivers on Windows.
Bodno can find the printer but jobs never leave. Go to:
Scroll right to the PRINT CLASS column, set it to WIN32API, save and restart Bodno. Full guide: MAGAPI error on Magicard printers.
Bodno may be connected to a database by accident. Go to Database › Disconnect and print again.
On a Mac
- Magicard's Mac driver comes in two versions: one for Intel Macs and one for Macs with Apple chips. Check yours under Apple menu › About This Mac and install the matching one.
- If macOS blocks the installer, go to System Settings › Privacy & Security and click Open Anyway.
- Then pick the printer in Bodno under File › Print Settings. More: Bodno on a Mac.

A "print processor does not exist" message, a printer listed under "Other devices" instead of Printers, or a printer that disappears every time it is turned off are not quick fixes. Call us and we will look at it with you.
