🖨️ MAGICARD MONOCHROME + OVERLAY

Magicard MA600KO Black Monochrome Ribbon with Overlay

Perfect for back-of-card printing and black text applications—sharp monochrome printing with built-in card protection. Designed for multiple Magicard series including Enduro, Rio Pro, and Pronto models, delivering 600 crisp black prints with protective overlay for professional, durable ID cards that handle daily wear like champions.

Get razor-sharp black text and graphics with the convenience of 600 monochrome prints per ribbon—genuine KO (Black + Overlay) ribbon engineered for multiple Magicard printer series including Enduro, Rio Pro, and Pronto models that delivers crystal-clear barcodes, crisp text, and built-in protective overlay for cards that stay professional-looking through years of daily handling.

Why Black + Overlay Makes Perfect Sense

  • Crystal-clear barcodes every single time — Black resin printing creates sharp, high-contrast barcodes and QR codes that scanners read flawlessly, eliminating those frustrating "won't scan" moments at access points
  • Text that actually stays readable — The protective overlay seals your printed information under a clear protective film, so employee names, ID numbers, and contact details won't fade or scratch off after months of pocket wear
  • Perfect for back-of-card applications — Finally print terms, conditions, magnetic stripe numbers, and contact info on card backs without worrying about the text wearing off during normal use
  • 600 prints means fewer interruptions — Larger ribbon capacity lets you complete bigger batches without constantly swapping ribbons, so you can focus on getting cards out instead of babysitting the printer
  • Genuine Magicard quality you can trust — Authentic ribbons come with cleaning rollers and are engineered specifically for your Enduro, Rio Pro, or Pronto series printer, preventing those dreaded "unknown ribbon" errors
  • Cost-effective for monochrome needs — When you don't need full color but do need durability, KO ribbons give you professional results without paying for color panels you won't use

Magicard Multi-Series Compatibility

  • Enduro Series Compatible — Works with Magicard Enduro3E and Enduro+ models for reliable monochrome printing with overlay protection
  • Rio Pro Series Compatible — Perfect fit for Rio Pro and Rio Pro 360 printers, delivering consistent black printing and card protection
  • Pronto Series Compatible — Compatible with original Pronto and Pronto100 models for professional monochrome applications
  • Perfect fit guaranteed — Drop-in ribbon cartridge design ensures proper installation with no alignment issues or compatibility guesswork when you need to change ribbons quickly
  • Cleaning roller included — Each genuine ribbon comes with a cleaning roller specifically designed for your printer series to maintain consistent print quality and extend printer life
  • Dual-sided printing support — If your printer model handles dual-sided printing, this ribbon can print black elements and overlay on both card sides for complete protection
  • Maintains warranty coverage — Using genuine Magicard ribbons keeps your printer warranty intact and ensures you get manufacturer support if issues arise

How KO (Black + Overlay) Printing Actually Works

1. Black Resin Application Black resin panel prints sharp, opaque text, barcodes, and graphics with excellent contrast and clarity on any card background color
2. Overlay Protection Clear protective overlay panel applies a thin, transparent film over the entire printed area, sealing and protecting the black elements
3. Heat & Pressure Bonding Controlled heat and pressure permanently bond both the black resin and protective overlay to the card surface for lasting durability
4. Professional Finish The result is crisp black printing with a protective layer that prevents scratches, fading, and wear while maintaining professional appearance
