It now reads well, but sometimes still shows 'error' after a successful read operation. Also, after the card feeds successfully and moves completely through the reader, the motor continues to operate for a second. Any ideas?

Help Appreciated,

Dave

It could be that the card sense chip is just "old" and might miss a bit every now and then. This will produce a checksum error.

The motor continues to run briefly after an error condition. This is because of delays written into the HP microcode.
