Using a CardReader
General Guidelines
To wake up the CardReader, insert a card into the CardReader slot. One short beep indicates the CardReader/
printer is awake.
If you are using a Magnetic CardReader, insert a card with the stripe facing away from the printer. The card
can be swiped in either direction.
For information on CardReader LED indicators and audio indicators, see
