Trade Agreement Act (TAA) Compliant
The SD Series printers are proudly manufactured in the U.S.A. and thus, are compliant with
the Trade Agreement Act. Because the printers are TAA compliant, it satisfies the
requirements for many U.S. Federal Government opportunities.
Magnetic Stripe Track Encoding
Both ISO (IAT) and JIS II magnetic stripe configurations are available on the SD Series
printers. Magnetic stripe field upgrades are also available, allowing customers to modify their
application as their needs change. The magnetic stripe track encoding is user-definable. Users
have the flexibility to select which of the magnetic tracks to encode or to leave untouched. For
example, leave a pre-encoded track one untouched and write to track two and/or three. This
feature is controlled by the Printer Manager.
Ergonomically Designed Supply Cartridge
The ergonomically designed supply cartridge drops in from the top of the printer and holds the
ribbon plus a drop-in cleaning roller. This design makes it easier to remember to replace the
cleaning roller with each change of ribbon. Replacement cleaning rollers and a cleaning card
are included in every ribbon kit to make maintenance easy and convenient.
Card Hopper Options
A 100-card input hopper and 25-card output hopper are standard on the SD Series card
printers, as well as an exception card slot on the front of the printer. The SD260 card printer is
also available with a manual feed input as a factory option only. There is an optional 100-card
output hopper which is end-user installable and available as an upgrade. On the SD360
printer, there is an optional 200-card input hopper, which is end-user installable. The chart
