Logging in with a Magnetic Stripe Card

To log in at a magnetic stripe card reader, do the following:
  1. Swipe the card down through the guide track with the magnetic stripe facing the indicated direction. Ensure the card is pressed firmly against the guide.

    2. If the card reader cannot read the entry, run the card through the guide track again. Do not run the card through at an angle or the device will not accept the data.

  2. If configured for Secondary PIN, enter your password on the login screen.
  3. Press Login to start a user session. See Using the MFP Device for login option details.
    If you are unable to log in, you may need to register your card using your Equitrac PINs or Windows username/password. See Registering Swipe Cards.
