“Magnetic Encoder” dialogue box
The Magnetic Encoder dialog box opens when the Encoding Settings button
is selected.
Track settings is used to select the desired ISO standard for each magnetic strip.
See the table in this Appendix for information regarding ISO 7811 standards.
Coercivity sets the magnetic encoding to high (HiCo) or low (LoCo) coercivity.
A magnetic strip that is encoded in high coercivity is more resistant to external
disturbance than a magnetic strip encoded using low coercivity.
Direct encoding is used to directly encode one or more magnetic strips from
this window simply by selecting them and entering the data to be encoded.

Automatic extraction is used to encode magnetic strip cards from applications
be interpreted as an encoding command by print driver.

Cleaning the magnetic encoder
The magnetic encoder head requires regular maintenance in order to ensure the integrity of the data encoded onto cards.

Repeatedly running the cleaning card through the printer cleans the card feed rollers, the cleaning rollers, the print head and the
magnetic encoder read-write head.
If, in between two routine printer cleaning runs (every 1000 cards inserted), the read-write process fails with more than one card, it is
