APPENDIX B
This section contains information on the additional operations of a P430i Printer equipped with the optional
Smart Card Contact Station. (See Chapter 2 for location.)
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 P430i 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 P430i model.
Media Loading Orientation
