Magnetic Stripe Coercivity
The printer may require additional settings to match the coercivity of the card. When these
values are set they remain the same for all cards processed using the same design. The defaults
are set to standard ISO format and high coercivity. Refer to
“MagStripeGeneral” on page 86 for
information about changing the coercivity.
The type of magnetic stripe cards you use must match the type of module (ISO or JIS) installed.
Test your printer to make sure that it is encoding magnetic stripe information properly.
Smart Card Design
Smart card processing differs from other types of card personalization. The “smart card” step of
personalization is controlled by an application that is separate from the rest of card
personalization.
The smart card reader can be factory-installed, or installed later as a field upgrade by a service
provider or value-added reseller. The printer configuration label (or a label attached at the time of
the field upgrade) shows the type of smart card reader installed. You can request additional
information about the smart card reader and the type of cards to use from your service provider
or value-added reseller.
Smart Card Processing Requirements
The following items are required to personalize smart cards:

A smart card reader in the printer

A cable for the smart card port used (this cable is not needed for single-wire processing)

A card production application that is designed to work with the printer and the smart card
application

Smart cards that work with the reader in the printer
