A ( Draft 1 ) Zebra ZXP Series 8 Card Printer User’s Manual 71 ZXP Series Toolbox Printer Configuration Job Log The Job Log is a utility that builds a database of card transactions in the printer’s host computer. Job Log records data encoded on the card’s magnetic stripe, together with date, time, and the printer’s serial number. The data set can be uploaded at any time to a central archive, thus providing a means for security officers to validate the card by comparing it with tamper-proof real data. 72 • Enable Logging - If this box is checked, the logging feature is enabled. • Logfile Definition - Choose one of the following options: If the “Create new log file each day” box is unchecked, the data is saved to a log file of your choice (Filename). If the box is checked, the data is saved to log file ZXPLog with the day’s date; e.g., ZXPLog_2009_3_4. In addition to the Filename, you may wish to enter a special field Separator Character. The default field Separator Character is “|”. Zebra ZXP Series 8 Card Printer User’s Manual P1013772-001 Rev.

Zebra ZXP Series 8 Card Printer User’s Manual P1013772-001 Rev. A ( Draft 1 ) Smart Card Options Contact Smart Cards Contact Smart Cards have a pad of contacts on the surface of the card that connect to the circuitry embedded into the card. The printer responds to commands that position the card at the contact location, where the printer connects to the contacts on the Smart Card. Data to be encoded onto the Smart Card, and data read from the Smart Card, can interface via a connector on the printer’s rear panel (Contact Station), or encoding/decoding can be performed by logic on the printer’s Main PCBA (Contact Encoder). All other printer operations remain the same as the standard models. Media Loading Orientation for Contact Smart Cards Place the cards in the Input Hopper in the correct orientation as shown (with the gold-plated Smart Card contacts at the top surface of the card and facing to the left). Ensure that the cards are seated properly the hopper. P1013772-001 Rev. A ( Draft 1 ) Zebra ZXP Series 8 Card Printer User’s Manual 113 Smart Card Options Contact Station Smart Card Interface When a command to the printer interface sends a card to the Smart Card Contact Station, the printer connects the Smart Card Contact Station to the female DB-9 connector on the rear of the printer. DB-9 Connector location for Smart Card Contact Station An attached external Smart Card Programmer can be used to program Smart Card chips. The following table shows the Smart Card Contact Points. 114 Pin Smart Card Contact Points DB-9 Smart Card Contact Points C1 (VCC) C6 (Vpp) C2 (Reset) C7 (I/O) C3 (Clock) C8 (RFU) C4 (RFU) C5 (GND) (GND when chip is at station) Zebra ZXP Series 8 Card Printer User’s Manual P1013772-001 Rev. A ( Draft 1 ) Smart Card Options Contactless Smart Cards Rather than using a contact pad, Contactless Smart Cards use various short-range radio technologies to “connect” to the printer. The printer moves the card to an antenna location on the card path, and the encoding or decoding occurs. All other printer operations remain the same. Media Loading Orientation for Contactless Smart Cards For Contactless Smart Cards, orientation is not a consideration. Printing on Contactless Smart Cards With reverse transfer printing technology, there are no restrictions when designing material to be printed on Contactless Smart Cards. P1013772-001 Rev.
