Magicard HoloKote system prints watermarks to secure your ID card

Magicard card printers are equipped with patented HoloKote® watermark technology that prints a hologram-like mark on the card during its printing process, at no additional consumables cost. The Magicard Pronto, Enduro and Rio Pro printers take advantage of this PVC card printing technology. They print a standard design or a custom image using the overlay panel of the ink ribbon during printing, providing protection against counterfeiting to your cards.

Standard Holokote system

Pronto and Enduro printers allow you to use the standard Holokote printing system, with four designs selectable from the Windows driver. The designs are those represented in the image. The printer user can choose to repeatedly print the image across the entire surface of the card, or select an exact image at a particular position. Choose the placement in dark colors or in the golden square of the Holopatch cards for more visibility.

Magicard Holokote Flex System

The Rio Pro, Rio 2e, Tango 2e, Tango + L and XXL printers also allow the use of the Holokote Flex system. HoloKote uses a fixed 6x4 grid pattern that repeats on the card surface, while HoloKote Flex lets you specify the size and position of the HoloKote mark on the card. For example, you can place the Holokote logo on the gold or silver border of Magicard Holopatch cards.

Personalized watermark with your logo

Send us your custom design. It will be encrypted and stored with a custom key to make counterfeiting your design impossible. Physically, Custom Key is a memory card that is inserted into the front slot of the printer and allows you to print your design on the cards, or even if you need to lock the printer to prevent unauthorized use. On the Rio Pro 360 printer, the HoloFlex image can be supplied on a CD to be loaded into the Magicard driver.

Holopatch Card System

HoloPatch works in conjunction with HoloKote to create a High Visibility Gold or Silver Seal on the card, printed using the HoloPatch feature of the Magicard Rio Pro 360 Printer, based on special Holopatch cards. A solution that combines visual security and elegance for your personalized cards. The obtained visual protection effect resembles the effect of a security hologram. This is an intermediate level of security, the advantages of which are great ease of implementation and a price much lower than that of a true hologram.
