MagStripeGeneral
Magnetic stripe settings are available for WebAdmin and WebService access
levels only. WebAdmin access levels can use the following settings to setup basic
magnetic stripe options.
Notes
1. The Attempts entry displays the number of attempts the printer makes to
encode the magnetic stripe data. Setting this number to a lower value will
increase the throughput of the printer but can decrease the reliability of
magnetic stripe encoding.
Setting the number to a higher value will decrease the throughput of the
printer but can increase the reliability of magnetic stripe encoding.
2. Choose the coercivity setting that matches the cards you are using. The
choices are HICO, LOCO, NTT1, NTT2, NTT3.

• For Single-Track Magnetic Stripe Encoding, set DataFormat1 to 'JIS' and
