External Card Reader

The market is asking more and more for MFPs to be able to handle Authentication
methods such as Card Readers. For this reason, compatibility with an external Card
Reader has been introduced for the
Card Authentication Kit (CAK) - The MFP can become compatible with an external
Card Reader by activating its compatibility with the MFP firmware, through the optional
Card Authentication Kit. This kit is necessary to activate the "sleeping" function
embedded in the MFPs firmware. The kit contains a procedure and a unique code to be
used on the MFP that has to be linked to the Card Reader.
External Card Readers - The following types of third party Card Readers are
compatible with Olivetti MFPs, however,
support for third-party External Card Readers:
RFIdeas (HID Type): RDR-6081AKU
SCM (Mifare Type): SCL010
ELATEC (Legic Type): TWN3-LEGIC
NOTE
! CAK does not support Equitrac
card readers are not compatible
! The RDR-7L81AKU card reader from RFIdeas did not pass quality assurance due to power requirement in excess of
the USB standard. Therefore Olivetti recommends NOT to use this card reader
! Other card readers from the same vendors or other vendors have not been tested. Therefore, they may, or may not
work with CAK depending on their individual criteria.
Olivetti models that support CAK:
 d-Color MF2603 / d-Color MF2604
 d-Copia 403MF / d-Copia 404MF
 d-Copia 3001MF
 d-Copia 4200MF / d-Copia 5200MF
Current Olivetti printers cannot be equipped with
the ability to authenticate incoming IC Card Reader transmissions. The Authentication
function is carried out by the memory / HDD inside the main unit, much like the 'Job
Accounting' function found in the Systems Menus of the A3 MFP.
NOTE
! Trial Mode - A Trial Mode is available for products that support CAK. This may be activated up to 3 times for a
period of 30 days each. This is useful for demonstration purposes in case dealers do not have CAK in stock and need
to do an immediate demonstration.
! ID Card Register - The ID Card Register is a separate solution for IT administrators. With this utility, they can
create the Authentication code between multiple IC Cards and the Card Readers from their PC, without needing the
Card Reader to be connected to the main unit.
