Appendix A – Printer Configuration
This item sets whether the printer will attempt to reprint the current print job after a paper fault is corrected.
MCR Method
Possible Values: Always On, Host Request*
Note: This item is only available when using the Mobile Setup Utility.
This item sets whether the MCR is enabled only when a host request is received, or if it is enabled at all times.
When used in the Host Request mode, the host system sends a request to the DP-550 to enable the Magnetic
Card Reader. “Swipe Card Now” will be displayed and the
MCR Indicator will flash to indicate that the card
may now be passed through the MCR slot, or “swiped”.
When used in the Always On mode, the card may be swiped at any time and the data will be immediately sent
to the host system.
For more information, please refer to the DP-5XX Programmer’s Manual for more information.
MCR Data
Possible Values: 1 Track*, 2 Track, 3 Track
Note: This item is only available when using the Mobile Setup Utility.
This item sets the number of data tracks to read when a card is swiped.
