This section describes the functions provided by a generic card embossing unit (CEU). These descriptions include definitions of the service-specific commands that can be issued, using the WFSAsyncExecute, WFSExecute, WFSGetInfo and WFSAsyncGetInfo functions.
Embossing card units are generally viewed by XFS as compound devices with the following capabilities and features:
- Embossing or printing of magnetic stripe card/ smart card.
- Reading/encoding magnetic stripe tracks 1, 2, and 3.
- Reading/writing smart card.
- LCD display/ keypad input.

- Embossing or printing of magnetic stripe card/ smart card - Card Embossing Unit (CEU) service.
- Reading/encoding magnetic stripe tracks 1, 2, and 3 - ID Card (IDC) service, however when combined encoding/ embossing is performed the CEU service class is used.
- Reading/writing smart cards - ID Card (IDC) service, however when combined writing smart card/ embossing is performed the CEU service class is used.
