Using smart cards (select models only)

NOTE: The term smart card is used throughout this chapter to refer to both smart cards and Java™ Cards.

A smart card is a credit card-sized accessory that carries a microchip containing memory and a microprocessor. Like personal computers, some smart cards have an operating system to manage input and output, and they include security features to protect against tampering. Industry-standard smart cards are used with the smart card reader (select models only).

A personal identification number (PIN) is needed to gain access to the contents of the microchip. For more information about smart card security features, refer to Help and Support.

Inserting a smart card

1.Hold the card label-side up, and gently slide the card into the smart card reader until the card is seated.

2.Follow the on-screen instructions for logging on to the computer using the smart card PIN.
