A. Introduction The Color ID Card Printer has a Magnetic Stripe
Encoding Module available as a factory installed
option. Either a high or a low coercivity magnetic
encoder is available (specify high or low when
ordering). Both encoding modules will encode on
Tracks 1, 2, and 3.
When encoding, the Color ID Card printer will
encode according to the ISO standards for
magnetic encoding. These standards are preset
within the printer driver and will remain as the
default until modified. Although these settings will
suffice for most applications, it is possible to
change or customize the printerÕs magnetic
encoding process. To do this, simply select the
Magnetics
button from within the printer driver
setup window and change the Magnetic Track
Options according to how your specific magnetic
stripe reading equipment is configured. This
window is shown below. Please note that all
options must be changed separately for each of the
three individual tracks. To set these options back to
the ISO standard settings once they have been
changed, simply select the Default Format button
for each of the separate tracks.
