RW 420 User Guide
Card Reader Options
The RW 420 can be equipped with optional Magnetic Stripe
and Smart Card readers. The magnetic stripe card reader al-
lows the user to swipe magnetic stripe cards such as credit
cards through a slot in the printer and then read and process
the data contained in the card.
In a similar manner the Smart Card reader can read the in-
formation written in the microchip embedded in Smart Cards,
and process the information in the chip in a variety of ways
depending on the printer’s application.
