Why won't machines accept my green card? [closed] - Student with documents and laptop happy about getting into university

Whenever I enter the US, I encounter machines at immigration that take a photo and print a receipt. They always print the receipt with an X on it so that I have to spend longer at the counter.

All of my family members' green cards (issued at the same time) work with these machines. I thought that this was due to my photo but when I applied for a driver's license, I was told the machines at the DMV could not process my green card either, which leads me to suspect that there is something wrong with my green card.

My card was issued in 2010 and is valid til 2020.

People at the desk never seem suspicious that my card was rejected, so I don't think that this is an uncommon issue.

Are there any known problems with old green cards not working with certain automated machines? How would I go about getting a green card that works better with these machines?
