Appendix A:
Magnetic Stripe
Encoding Module
A. MAGNETIC TRACK OPTIONS
A 4200 Series Card Printer can be purchased with one of two types of factory-
installed Magnetic Stripe Encoding Modules. The first, most common type is an
ISO Standard encoding module with a dual-coercivity (high or low) encoding head.
The second is a JIS II Standard encoding module commonly used in Japan.
By default, the printer driver is set to encode according to ISO standards onto high-
coercivity magnetic stripes. To change the encoding mode, coercivity setting, or to
modify the ISO standards for tracks 1, 2, and 3, simply select the
Magnetic Track
Options tab (or Magnetics button) from within the printer driver setup window.
The following Magnetic Track Options will display.
NOTE: If using the printer with a Macintosh, it is only possible to encode according to ISO
Standards. These standard ISO encoding options are not listed in the printer driver and
cannot be modified. The printer driver will only display options for
Coercivity , Verify
Magnetic Data , and Shift Data Left . The following lists the standard ISO settings preset
in the printer driver for magnetic encoding:
Track 1: Bit Density=210 BPI, Character Size=7 Bits, LRC Generation=Even Parity,
Character Parity=Odd Parity, and ASCII Offset=SPACE
Track 2: Bit Density=75 BPI, Character Size=5 Bits, LRC Generation=Even Parity,
Character Parity=Odd Parity, and ASCII Offset=ZERO
Track 3: Bit Density=210 BPI, Character Size=5 Bits, LRC Generation=Even Parity,
Character Parity=Odd Parity, and ASCII Offset=ZERO
