Notes
All parameters are ASCII characters, i.e. greater than or equal to 0x20, with the exception of
a non-ASCII character enclosed in single quotes as a field separator. This applies both to
parameter specifications sent from application to printer, and to MICR data returned from
printer to application.
Parameters are positional; their order in the parameter string is the order in which the
parsed MICR data will be returned. Unrecognized parameters will be ignored, and
processing of the parsing parameters will stop. Any data remaining after the unrecognized
parameter will be treated as normal input data.
If parameters are not defined (for example, ESC wP <CR> or ESC wp <CR>) parsing is not
selected. One status byte, followed by all decoded MICR characters will be returned. See
the descriptions of the commands. This is the default parsing format if no other is selected:
