C1 - Encoding options
Some models of Evolis printers are equipped with encoding systems which are used to customise magnetic strips, and contact and
contactless smartcards.
Depending on the model, it is possible to install up to three types of encoder in the printer (magnetic strip, contact and contactless
smartcards).

path taken by the cards and after the print head. The encoding sequence for a card is always
carried out before the printing.
Use only magnetic strip cards that comply with ISO 7810 and ISO 7811 standards.
The magnetic strip must be moulded into the card to work properly.
Never use cards with a glued-on magnetic strip.
