A card processing device capable of commonly attaining processing of a plurality of sorts of cards (1) of the same specifications by means of a single card reader/writer (2). The card processing device includes a card (1) including a print record layer (11) and a magnetic record layer (12), as well as a card reader/writer (2) including a thermal head (32) for printing and a magnetic head (34) for reading and writing. The magnetic record layer (12) is provided with a card sort discrimination code record region (12a), in which a card sort discrimination code for discriminating among a system card, a prepaid card, a stamp card and a point card is recorded. The card reader/writer (2) has a prepaid card processing program, a stamp card processing program and a point card processing program stored therein, so that a program to be executed may be automatically selected depending on the card sort discrimination code read, resulting in card processing being attained.

Dispositif de traitement de cartes capable d'effectuer d'ordinaire le traitement d'un certain nombre de types de cartes (1) répondant aux mêmes spécifications, au moyen d'une unité de lecture/écriture de cartes (2). Comprend une carte (1) comportant une couche d'enregistrement d'impression (11) et une couche d'enregistrement magnétique (12), ainsi qu'une unité de lecture/écriture de cartes (2) dotée d'une tête thermique (32) pour l'impression et d'une tête magnétique (34) pour la lecture et l'écriture. La couche d'enregistrement magnétique (12) comporte une zone (12a) où figure un code de discrimination permettant de distinguer les types de cartes suivants : carte système, carte prépayée, carte de timbres, carte de points. L'unité de lecture/écriture (2) est dotée d'un programme de traitement de cartes prépayées, d'un programme de traitement de cartes de timbres et d'un programme de traitement de cartes de points, ce qui permet de choisir automatiquement le programme à exécuter selon le code de discrimination lu, et d'effectuer ainsi le traitement de cartes.
