The Magicard Prima 8 is an ultra-high-resolution retransfer plastic card printer engineered for issuing secure ID cards, driving licences, travel passes, and payment badges. Using advanced reverse-transfer technology, the Prima 8 prints your design onto a clear retransfer film first before fusing it directly onto the card surface. This provides vibrant, photo-quality artwork with true over-the-edge coverage and no white margins.
