may not be able to read the right-hand side of the card.
Step
Procedure
1
Select the Shift Data Left option to apply to all Tracks.
Using the Encode Before Print checkbox
Use the Encode Before Print option to instruct the Printer to encode the card first, before
anything is printed.
Step
Procedure
1
Select this option to have the Printer encode the card before it is printed.
OR
Do not select this option and the Printer will encode the card after it has been
printed.
(Note: Encoding the card before printing takes a few seconds longer, but prevents
wasting a printed card if the Magnetic Stripe is unable to be encoded.)
