Magicard Prima 8 Single-Sided ID Card Printer — Contactless Encoding

The Magicard Prima 8 is a single-sided reverse-transfer (retransfer) ID card printer built for high-security, high-durability credentials. It prints your image onto clear film and fuses it over the entire card surface — true over-the-edge, photo-quality printing that excels on smart, contactless, and composite technology cards where direct-to-card printers struggle. It runs at 300 dpi and about 100 full-color cards per hour, with USB and Ethernet standard. Security is built in: Standard and Custom HoloKote watermarks (up to 10 designs), UV inline printing, optional clear or holographic over-lamination, Zero Latent Data erase, Threat Benchmarking, and a logical printer lock as standard. The Prima 8 is FIPS 201 compliant and on the GSA Approved Product List, and it’s backed by a 3-year MagiCover Plus warranty with a hot-swap loaner. This configuration includes factory-fitted contactless smart card encoding (MIFARE, DESFire, iCLASS) for programming tap credentials. This is a printer-only purchase; ribbons, blank cards, and cleaning supplies are sold separately — see Complete your setup and Compatible Supplies for the matches recommended for this configuration.
