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
