Systems and methods for providing smudge resistant and durable ink-jet images are provided. Upon receipt of a command signal, a portion of the system is enabled to further convert the source AC power to regulated DC power at a voltage level that is less than the first voltage level and greater than the second voltage level. The reference head holder is rotated about the reference nozzle, and the other head holders are also rotated simultaneously. With this, delaminating of the wiring layer inside the semiconductor device is suppressed, and the damage of an electrode is suppressed. If the authorization response message indicates that the verification was successful, the transaction is completed.
