ID Card Printer – User Manual
- 21 -
If you have a printer fitted with the optional magnetic encoding module, you can simultaneously print
and encode the magnetic stripe on the rear of a magnetic stripe card.
The magnetic encoding module can encode
HiCo and LoCo type magnetic stripe cards
When loading magnetic stripe cards, make sure the
stripe is on the left and underneath when viewing
from the front of the printer.
Refer to your PC Badge printing application for instructions on
how to print and encode a magnetic stripe card.
We recommend only self adhesive cards supplied by Ultra ID via your ID Card Printer supplier.
There are many different types of self-adhesive cards. Thorough investigation and testing has shown
that poorer quality or incorrect card types will cause problems in the printer. These problems range
from poor image quality; failure to feed from the card hopper; dye-film being cut and cards getting
jammed in the roller mechanism.
