Definition
From the Greek, iso, meaning same. Used to represent data from
the International Organization for Standardization.
The standard for encoding to a Magnetic Stripe provided by the
Japan Standards Association. The single track is as wide as ISO
tracks 1 and 2 combined and in the same approximate location as
those tracks but on the front of the card. The Coercivity level is
600 Oe.
An area of a multicolored Ribbon (e.g., YMCK) that contains black
resin for transfer to the card surface. Also used in reference to the
application of preference to items printed on the card - those
using the black panel in lieu of a process (YMC) black.
The application of a film or resinous substance, fused by heat and
pressure, to the surface of a card.
An array of several computers connected through a series of data
transfer cables for the sharing of data and peripherals.
A document layout that is viewed with the document's long axis in
a horizontal orientation.
A device that contains a liquid crystal between two pieces of
polarized film through which reflected or ambient light can pass.
When a current is applied, the liquid's polarity changes and blocks
the passage of the light resulting in an opaque area of the display.
The areas are arrayed to form characters.
A semiconductor that emits light when a current is applied.
A generic reference to anything onto which the Printer can
transfer an image including cards, Ribbon and film.
