Smart Card Contact Station
This section contains information on the addi-
tional operations of card printers with Smart
Card contact stations.
Introduction Smart Cards (ISO7816) have built-in microcir-
cuits. Card memory can store fingerprints,
voice recognition patterns, medical records
and other such data. Printers can have docking
stations installed that can interface with Smart
Card circuits. Smart Card programming hard-
ware connects to a DB-9 connector on the rear
panel. Configurations with this option respond
to commands that position the cards at the
docking station, as follows:
Command

Station
OS value

value dots from Sta-
tion default (96)
All other printer operations remain the same as
those for other Privilege models.
