Security is handled smartly. You can add magnetic stripe, contact, or contactless encoders, depending on what your access system requires. There is also a Kensington lock slot to physically secure the printer. All these features help guard against unauthorised use and ensure data integrity.
On the connectivity front, the SMART-31 supports USB out of the box, and some models offer optional Ethernet for networked deployments. It is compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux, making integration into your existing environment straightforward.
