Cards with Magnetic Stripe
The magnetic encoder is a factory-installed item with the read/write head positioned below or
above the card path. Note that the magnetic encoder is settable via the driver for HiCo or
LoCo encoding.
When loading cards with magnetic stripes into the card feeder, please ensure that the magnetic
stripe is facing the left side of the printer, and closest to the bottom edge of the card feeder, as
shown below.
Caution • ONLY USE cards that comply with ISO 7810 & 7811 standards for magnetic
stripe cards. The magnetic stripe must be flush to the surface of the card to work properly.
Never use cards which have taped-on magnetic stripes.
