1. A card medium processing device for carrying out a predetermined process for a card medium in which a magnetic record carrier for recording magnetic information is formed, the card medium processing device comprising:
a medium transfer unit structured to transfer the card medium along a transfer path, while the card medium being in contact, and the card medium having been inserted from an insertion slot; a motor structured to drive the medium transfer unit; a magnetic head installed in an area of the insertion slot, the magnetic head structured to detect the magnetic record carrier of the card medium; a detection sensor structured to detect a presence and a position of the card medium in the transfer path; and a control unit structured to control a transfer of the card medium by driving the motor in accordance with a detection result of the detection sensor; wherein, if it is judged to be an abnormal transfer operation in which the card medium is not normally transferred, the control unit is structured to, at the time of ejecting the card medium out of the insertion slot, supply a write current to the magnetic head to delete at least a part of magnetic information recorded on the magnetic record carrier of the card medium. |
