Use only smartcards compliant with the ISO 7816-2 standard. Never print over
the chip.
C1b - Contact Smartcard Encoding
A printer fitted with a smartcard contact station works in exactly the same way as a basic card printer. The ID Maker smartcard contact station is used to
program chips to ISO 7816-2 standards.
Contact Station Location
The contact station is a module installed either in the factory or on site by IDville. It is located over the path taken by the cards and after the print
head. To contact the smartcard, the contact station descends mechanically against the smartcard. The programming sequence for a chip is always
carried out before the card is printed.
