PP-60 User Manual v1.0
Magnetic Card Reader
The PP-60 has a built-in magnetic card reader. The card reader
incorporates a (3)-track magnetic read head requiring a single
swipe to read field data from all three tracks.
Figure 16
The reader’s magnetic head faces towards the bottom of the
printer. When placing the card into the reader, the magnetic strip
must be facing as show in the figure above. Keep the inner edge
of the card flat on the inner base of the reader to ensure that the
magnetic strip passes over the read head evenly.
When swiping the card through the reader, use an even consistent
motion from start to finish.
The speed of swiping can vary however the speed must be
consistent from start to finish of the swipe in order to accurately
read card data.
User Notes:
To use the magnetic card reader feature, special software must be
used to read and process the card information. If you do not have
card reading software, please consult your reseller to find out if
