Magicard Pronto ID Card Printer

Looking for the current model? The Magicard Pronto is a legacy model — still available here while stock lasts, and we continue to stock Pronto ribbons and supplies for existing owners. The current equivalent is the Magicard 250X ($1,299): about 23 seconds per full-color card (versus about 35 seconds on the Pronto) and about 5 seconds in monochrome, with a 50-card input hopper instead of single-card feeding, HoloKote security, a lifetime Bodno software license for Mac and Windows, and 3 years of coverage.

Magicard Pronto ID Printer

Take It Anywhere

The Pronto is compact, lightweight, and portable, so you can easily fit it on any office desk, customer service desk, or welcome desk. Use it to issue cards anywhere — travel to events, conferences, and exhibits, to badge delegates or create beautiful access cards.

Print on Demand - Instantly

With a single-card feeder, the Pronto is designed to deliver cards as you need them. And it’s fast—no need to make your customers or conference delegates wait. Expect  full-color cards in about 35 seconds and monochrome in about 7 seconds.

Enjoy High-Quality Features

Don’t be fooled by its small size; the Pronto prints sharp, vibrant images just like its larger counterparts. (Like all direct-to-card printers, it leaves a thin unprinted border at the card edge.) Save money with its nifty rewrite feature: you can print, erase, and  reuse the same cards, printing with either black or black ink. The Pronto also saves you money with its ability to write on CR79 cards in addition to standard C80 cards. Use adhesive CR79 cards as an overlay on more expensive cards, like proximity cards, and then only replace the adhesive overlay.  

Add Visual Security for Free—With Magicard’s Exclusive Technology

Holokote is a patented technology that prints a secure watermark on every card, without using any special laminate or ribbon. The Pronto includes four standard HoloKote designs. This feature is usually only found on high-end printers, and comes standard on the Pronto. When paired with HoloPatch cards, one area of the watermark becomes a highly-visible gold security seal, giving your card outstanding visual security at a fraction of the usual cost.

Configure the Pronto According to your Needs

The Pronto can be factory-upgraded to support magnetic stripe, smart chip and contactless encoding. Factory upgrades must be ordered at time of sale.
