Generic MICR Fundamentals Guide
preprinted forms
Forms that have been previously printed which can be run
through a printer in order to add variable data to them.
print density
Print density refers to the relative darkness of print on the page.
Very dense print appears totally black. Less dense print looks
lighter, and solid filled areas may not be totally black.
proof department
The bank department that sorts, distributes and checks (or
proves) all transactions arising from the bank operations.
proof machine
Equipment that simultaneously sorts items, records the dollar
amount for each sorted group and balances the total to the
original input amount.
psi
Pounds per square inch. Unit used to measure amount of
pressure.
rag bond
A type of paper containing a large percentage of cotton fiber.
Such papers are extremely strong and durable, with an
attractive, rich-looking appearance.
reader/sorter
An automated MICR document processing machine that
performs a number of functions, including:
Magnetizes the MICR characters and senses the electrical
signals generated by the subsequent passage of the characters
under a read head.
Decodes the signals, identifies the characters and validates the
field structures.
Separates valid documents from invalid or unreadable
documents and further separates the acceptable documents into
groups.
May optionally endorse and microfilm each document.
read head
The sensing device in reader/sorters that picks up the magnetic
signals of E-13B characters. These are converted into electrical
pulses and subsequently interpreted by the reader/sorter's
processor.
reflectance
The relative brightness of an illuminated paper surface. The term
may have several interpretations, depending if it is a function
reference to human perception, microfilm, or other image
sensing equipment.
registration
The printing of variable data so that it fits correctly into areas
provided for it on preprinted forms.
reject repair
system
High-speed equipment that can simultaneously read, repair, and
reenter previously rejected checks back into the check
processing system.
