Erase- and Printarea Limitations
Due to physical characteristics of thermo-rewriteable ISO cards, it is not
possible to ensure accurate printing up to the card edges. Therefore the borders
for accurate printing are defined as shown in Picture 2.
Compatible Card Systems
The EasyPrinter S3 is an industrial printer for use with thermo-rewriteable ISO
cards. Therefore it is possible to print and erase information onto the cards.
Further more cards with contactless chip as well as contact chip can be
modified electronically.
Card specifications regarding dimensions, tolerances, quality and construction
must be compatible with the relevant ISO standards for chip cards.
The following standards are used to specify the quality of usable cards:
ISO/IEC 7810, ISO/IEC 7811 1 to 5, ISO/IEC 7812, ISO/IEC 7813, ISO/IEC
7816.
INFO: Suitable thermo-rewrite foil for cards and finished qualified cards are
available at ANA-U GmbH!

Thickness of Cards:
This device is made to process cards with thickness between 0.3 mm and 0.9
mm.
To ensure the quality of the TRW surface, we also recommend testing and
approval of cards by ANA-U with about 50 card samples. Further card
productions should be checked against those samples, to ensure the same
quality and behaviour.
Rewritable Materials
The following materials are currently compatible:
•Mitsubishi Blue TRW foil
•Mitsubishi Black TRW foil
