additional information. MagEncodingMode3 = ISO Magnetic Stripe Encoding Mode = ISO Sets the Encoding Mode for the Print job to ISO. See Sending ISO Magnetic Encoding Information for additional information. MagEncodingMode3 = JIS2 Magnetic Stripe Encoding Mode = JIS II Sets the Encoding Mode for the Print job to JIS II.
Sending ISO Magnetic Encoding Information The CUPS Driver uses URL Encoding when defining data to be encoding to the Magnetic Stripe. Any special characters (such as start and end sentine ls) must be described with URL encoding to be recognized. See the URL Encoding Reference Reviewing the URL Encoding Reference for additional information.
Sending JIS II Magnetic Encoding Information The CUPS Driver uses URL Encoding when defining data to be encoding to the Magnetic Stripe. Any special characters (such as start and end sentine ls) must be described with URL ncoding to be recognized. See the URL Encoding Reference below.
