Appendix B
Smart Card Contact Station
Introduction
This section contains information on the additional operations of a P630i or P640i Printer
equipped with the optional Smart Card Contact Station. Smart Cards have a built-in
microcomputer and/or memory chip, which is used to store fingerprints, voice recognition
patterns, medical records, or other types of 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
model.

Orient the cards with the gold-plated Smart Card contacts at the bottom surface of the card and
