I used to work at a hospital that printed the plastic embossed credit cards as patient ID's. They had a mag strip on the back and the print was embossed on the card. Now that was a noisy printer, and by the way, it was interactive, not spooled. I can remember the middle of the night calls, "My screen is frozen ..." My response; "Is the card punch on line?" Their response; "Yes!" 45 minute drive in to press the online button on the card printer.

Loved the OT and mileage. Oh and all of the twinax was over CAT 3 using a star panel and bayluns.
