Introduction
MiCard provides an easy to use, easy to install and cost effective solution for identification
with a contactless card at your Canon iR. With MiCard you simply wave your card over the
reader and you will be identified. After identification the Canon iR opens up and you are able
to make your copies or pick up your secure print jobs.
Installation and configuration has never been easier. You simply connect the MiCard via USB
directly to the device. Even power is supplied via USB, thus providing a cost effective
solution by removing the expense normally required for an additional interface. After
connecting MiCard to the device, it will automatically be recognized and configured by the in
the Canon iR integrated uniFLOW MEAP application.
There are many different technologies for Remote Frequency Identification (RFID) on the
market. Therefore, for additional flexibility, MiCard is available in 3 different versions, MiCard
HiTag, MiCard Legic/MiFare, and MiCard HID Prox, all supporting different RFID frequencies
and technologies.
The new series MiCard V2 consists of the three models: MiCrad V2 HID, MiCard V2 HiTag
and MiCard V2 Multi.
The uniFLOW MEAP application embedded in the Canon iR will also make your life in the
office easier. You can use it for printing confidential information securely. Simply select the
print job you want to print directly from the control panel of the Canon iR, without the risk of
interception by others.
Additionally it can be used for charging back copy jobs to cost centres, departments or
customers, printing of general/internal company documents, or the authentication into other
applications like for instance eCopy.
Scope of supply
The MiCard reader package consists of the MiCard Reader itself and the appertaining
connection cable.

Configuration
The MiCard device is working without further configuration; however some
“advanced” options are available.
When using uniFLOW OM v3.1.1 you can see the connected MiCard readers on the
MEAP/miniMIND status tab of the main menu “
Connections”
.
By clicking on in the ID Device column a new window opens showing the
advanced options. When using uniFLOW OM 3.1 you won’t see the connected MiCard
readers in the status overview, but you can open the configuration page using this
URL:
http://<MFP-IP>:8000/usbidmodule/base.htm
The Configuration page will look like in the screenshot below.

In the following please find an explanation of the terms used and the possible
settings on the configuration site:
Connected ID Module
shows the ID Module connected, e.g. MiCard / miniMIND
Last Read ID
shows the last ID read by a card swipe
Conversion Result
shows the result of the last read ID when the configured code
conversions are applied. This is the ID sent to the server for authentication.
Code Remove First
specifies the number of characters to be removed from the ID read before the code
conversion takes place. For instance a value of 3 applied to A881C045 will result in
1C045.
Code Remove Last
specifies the number of characters to be removed at the end of the ID read before
the code conversion takes place. For instance a value of 3 applied to A881C045 will
result in A881C.
Code Length
specifies the code length applied after the code conversion. For instance a value of 6
applied to A881C045 will result in A881C0, whereas a value of 10 applied to
A881C045 will result in 00A881C045.

Code Conversion No. [N]
specifies the code conversion that has to be applied to the ID read in a series of code
conversions at step [N]. The result of the code conversions at step [N] is displayed
next to the name of the code conversion in the drop down list. If the result is empty
“()”, this code conversion can’t be applied in the actual step (cf. screenshot above).

After a code conversion step [N] is saved by clicking the “
Save
” button the
configuration page will allow to specify code conversion step [N+1] as shown in the
screenshot above.
Next to the name of the Connected ID Module in the configuration page (MiCard)
you can click on a link (
config
) which will bring up the page shown below.
With uniFLOW Login Manager v2.1.0/uniFLOW Secure Public Printing Applet v2.1.0
