Resolving Data intended for Magnetic Stripe (being printed on the
card) problem
Step Procedure
1 Confirm that the application is formatting the magnetic string correctly. See the
Using the Magnetic Track Options
procedure in Section 3, page 104.
2
Use WordPad (a Windows 95/ 98/ ME/ NT/ 2000/XP word processing program
in the Accessories Program Group).
a. Go to the File menu and select Page Setup.
b. Click on the Printer button and select the C16 Card Printer.
c. Click on OK and reset all four margins to zero. (Note: The WordPad will
automatically replace the values with its minimum margins.)
d. Open the program and type in: ~1%JULIEANDERSON^1234567890?
e. Go to File on the menu bar and select Print.
Note #1: The Printer should then feed a card into the Encoder and magnetically
encode the above string.)
Note #2: If Encoding from WordPad works properly, both the Printer and
communication from the computer are working properly. This indicates that the
issue is with the software application that is being used.
