Change
the
settings
as
needed,
and
then
click
Set
Current
to
apply
the
changes.
Attempts
—Specify
the
number
of
attempts
(automatic
retries)
the
printer
makes
to
encode
the
magnetic
stripe
data.
This
value
also
is
used
for
the
number
of
times
to
attempt
to
read
magnetic
stripe
data.
If
you
set
this
number
to
a
lower
value,
it
increases
the
throughput
of
the
printer
but
can
decrease
the
reliability
of
magnetic
stripe
encoding.
If
you
set
the
number
to
a
higher
value,
it
decreases
the
throughput
of
the
printer
but
can
increase
the
reliability
of
magnetic
stripe
encoding.
A
value
of
1
means
no
retry
attempts.
Coercivity
—Select
the
coercivity
setting
that
matches
the
cards
you
are
using.
Coercivity
measures
the
resistance
of
magnetic
material
to
the
removal
of
encoded
data.
High
coercivity
(HICO)
requires
more
electrical
force
to
encode
data
and
the
data
is
more
resistant
to
magnetic
interference.
The
choices
are
HICO
,
LOCO
,
NTT1
,
NTT2
,
NTT3
.
DataFormat(1,
2,
3)
—Specify
the
names
of
the
data
formats
used
for
tracks
1,
2,
and
3.
For
single
‐
track
magnetic
stripe
encoding,
set
DataFormat1
to
JIS
and
DataFormat2
and
DataFormat3
to
NONE
.
To
use
a
custom
data
format,
define
the
formats
for
tracks
1,
2,
and/or
3
using
the
MagStripeCustomTrack(1,
2,
3)
settings
and
then
set
the
corresponding
DataFormat
settings
to
CUSTOM
.
NoDataDisableTrack
—Disable
the
magnetic
stripe
write
head
for
a
track
if
the
track
contains
no
data.
When
this
is
disabled,
any
track
that
was
not
given
data
is
erased.
ReadTrack(1,
2,
3)
—Allow
magnetic
stripe
read
actions
to
read
from
tracks
1,
2,
and
3.
SSA(1,
2,
3)
—Adjust
the
start
sentinel
position
for
tracks
1,
2,
and
3.
(SSA3
also
sets
the
start
sentinel
for
a
single
track.)
The
start
sentinel
is
encoded
on
the
magnetic
stripe
immediately
before
the
first
data
character
and
indicates
the
beginning
of
data.
Enter
a
value
from
‐
4
to
4.
WriteTrack(1,
2,
3)
—Allow
magnetic
stripe
write
actions
to
write
to
tracks
1,
2,
and
3.
