Using the Mag Top of Form Option
Use this option only if the Printer has a built-in Magnetic Stripe encoder. (Note: If so, use
this option to shift the starting point of where the Printer will begin encoding the magnetic
track data on a card's Magnetic Stripe. When adjusting this value, keep in mind that a card
and its Magnetic Stripe will always remain in the same relative position as the card travels
through the Printer.)
The diagram (below) represents how the magnetic data will move in relation to the fixed
position of a card's Magnetic Stripe as a positive or negative Magnetic Offset value is
entered. (Note: For this diagram, imagine that the card is transparent and the card's
Magnetic stripe can be seen through the top or front side of the card.)
Step Procedure
1 Enter a negative value to move the start of the magnetic data more toward the
leading edge of the card, or the card output to the side of the Printer.
OR
Enter a positive value to move the start of the magnetic data toward the trailing
edge of the card, or the card input to the side of the Printer.
• Magnetic Data Direction: The arrows on these buttons indicate the direction
the magnetic data will move on the card's Magnetic Stripe.
• Maximum Adjustment Range: The maximum adjustment range is ±127. As a
rule, 10 equals about .030"/. 8mm.) (Note: Keep this in mind when adjusting
this option to avoid over-adjusting.)
Caution: If the negative value is set too high, the Printer may start
encoding before the card's Magnetic Stripe reaches the encoding head.
