Using the Verification option

Use the Verification option, which instructs the Printer to verify that all magnetic data has
been correctly encoded on each card. (Note: with either of these options, the number of
verification retries can be specified. A range of 1 to 5 retries is available.)

Step

Procedure

1

Select the Auto Eject 1st Error option, which instructs the Printer to
automatically eject a card containing magnetic data (that cannot be verified).
(Note: This option is helpful since Magnetic Stripe verification can sometimes
require more than a single pass.)

Manual Eject mode: Only the first mistakenly verified card would be

automatically ejected. If a second consecutive card cannot be verified, the
Printer will signal an error and go into a Manual Eject mode.

Auto Eject option: The Auto Eject option is the most direct means of

dealing with mistakenly-verified cards. However, it may be undesirable (if
batch printing) since mistakenly-verified blank cards are ejected into the
same stack as verified printed cards.

OR

Select the Manual Eject Each Error option so the Printer will signal an error on
its LCD display (stating that the magnetic data could not be verified). (Note:
When this occurs, press the Cancel soft key to manually eject the mistakenly
verified card.)
