A buzzer will sound once when a card is successfully read. 
When the printer fails to read the card, the buzzer will sound three times. Check the orientation of 
the card, and slide it through the reader slot again.

3.6 Card Reading (Only for Model with Card Reader)

Please keep the following points in mind when reading a card.

 

Swipe the card with its magnetic stripe side towards the printer.

 

Hold the card in the center as illustrated below and swipe it straight at a steady speed in the 
directions of arrows. You can swipe the card in either direction to read the data. 
Be sure to hold the printer firmly with your hand while swiping. 
If you hold the corner of the card, it is difficult to swipe it straight so that you may fail to read 
the card data. So hold the card in the center when you swipe the card.
