How the Magicard Rio Pro can enhance student ID programs
School ID programs used to be relegated to the college and university realm, but nowadays, grade schools, high schools, charter schools and other education associations are getting in on the ID game. Student ID cards increase campus security and can also streamline school processes. With the Magicard Rio Pro, schools of all sizes can print secure and multifunctional student ID badges with ease.
Efficiency is the hallmark of the Magicard Rio Pro. With incredibly fast print engines, the Rio Pro can print full-color cards in just 23 seconds and monochrome cards in only 6 seconds. The printer also supports batch printing with a 100-card input hopper and 70-card output stacker. Batch printing is an incredibly useful feature, especially for bigger schools that will be printing large runs of student ID badges at once. For occasions when only one card is needed at once the Magicard Rio Pro has hand-feed capability.
The Magicard Rio Pro also comes with built-in Ethernet connectivity, a feature that benefits large, networked environments. With Ethernet, multiple users can access the printer from different locations across the network to print cards. Especially useful in a large university or college setting, the heads of different departments within the school can speed up the student ID creation process by printing to the Magicard Rio Pro at the same time.
For additional security included at no additional cost, the Magicard Rio Pro comes with the built-in secure HoloKote watermark system. With HoloKote a watermark is printed across the surface of every card, increasing security by making it nearly impossible to duplicate or tamper with the ID cards. HoloKote is a standard feature to all Magicard printers and the Rio Pro comes with a choice of four HoloKote patterns selectable from the printer driver. When combined with Magicard HoloPatch cards, one section of the secure watermark is highlighted to create a high-visibility security seal. This greatly enhances the visual security of any school ID program making it easier to verify the authenticity of any ID badge.
The Magicard Rio Pro also supports the Custom HoloKote Key. The Custom HoloKote Key is an encrypted memory card that allows users to use custom images or text to create a secure watermark. Schools can print the school mascot or school name across the surface of every card. This custom HoloKote tool can also act as a lock for the printer making sure that no unauthorized users can access the custom design.
The HoloKote FLEX Key is also supported by the Magicard Rio Pro. Like the Custom Key, HoloKote FLEX is an encrypted memory card that allows users to print their custom secure watermark across the surface of every card at any size or location. With HoloKote FLEX the printer can be locked to guard access to the printer.
The Magicard Rio Pro is available with a host of features that make it easy to create multifunctional student ID programs. The printer can be configured with single or dual-sided printing and can even be upgraded to dual-sided printing in field with a simple drop-in kit. The Magicard Rio Pro is also available with magnetic stripe encoding and contact or contactless smart card encoding. These card encoding options allow student ID program operators to create ID badges with a variety of functions including cashless payment for lunch in the school cafeteria, checking out books and printing in the library, attendance tracking and more.
