Chapter 7: Smart Card

Module

Solutions that include a smart card (including contact cards and contactless cards)

require software that can communicate with both the printer and the card reader.

Some ID software applications include a smart card plug-in, design tool, or a

similar module that can communicate with the card reader. Not all cards will be

supported by a smart card plug-in. If the type of smart card that you want to use

is supported by the printer but not by an application, you will need to obtain the

programming interface (often as part of an SDK) for the smart card, an

application and the printer SDK. You will need to develop software to

communicate with the reader, printer, and other components of your solution.

The hardware that communicates with the card is called a reader. A smart card

module in the printer includes a reader. Depending on the type of card and the

type of reader, the reader might have read-only or both read and write

functionality.

The system which uses the card, such as an access system or payment system,

also includes readers where the card holder accesses the system. The system

reader can be connected to data components (a database), application

components, or other parts of the overall system.

Readers must match the card type and features used. For example, a contact card

reader cannot read contactless cards, and different types of contactless cards must

be matched with readers that read the frequency and proprietary format of the
