RW Series User Guide

Card Reader Options

The RW series can be equipped with optional Magnetic

Stripe and Smart Card readers. The magnetic stripe card

reader allows 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.

Magnetic Stripe Reader

The status of the Magnetic Stripe Reader (MSR) is indicated

in three possible ways:

• Reader status is displayed on the Main Menu LCD as

shown in Figure 15.

• The LCD backlight flashes to indicate status (3 flashes =

enabled, 2 flashes = disabled).

• Chimes indicates the reader status (3 chimes = enabled,

2 chimes = disabled).
