Smart Card Contact Station
This section contains information on the additional operations of a P100i Printer equipped
with the optional Smart Card Contact Station.
Introduction
Smart Cards can have a built-in microcomputer and/or memory to store fingerprints, voice
recognition patterns, medical records, and other such data. The printer may be equipped
with an optional contact station for programming Smart Cards (ISO 7816). This printer
model responds to commands that position the card at the contact station, where the printer
connects to the contacts on the Smart Card. All other printer operations remain the same as
the standard models.
Media Loading Orientation
Orient the cards with the gold-plated Smart Card contacts at the top surface of the card and
nearer the card entry slot.
