Printer technical optimization
The Xerox MICR systems use the same operating software as
their standard configuration counterparts. In addition, the MICR
systems have been enhanced to include the following features:
•
Optimized print engine
•
MICR materials package
•
Optimized paper handling system
•
Digitized MICR font
Optimization of the MICR print engines subsystem is required by
the physical properties of the dry ink. As a result of these
changes, dry ink and developer are not interchangeable between
MICR and non-MICR printers, unless specifically designed to
accept more than one type of materials.
The Xerox MICR systems have a paper handling system
designed for the highly accurate registration. This is required for
precise placement of the MICR line to maximize readability
during check processing.
Typical MICR printing concerns
The following areas of MICR user concerns have made banks
want to increase reliability of the MICR document generating
process:
•
Security: This can be addressed by providing high security
within the document creation process. In addition,
counterfeiting can be reduced by the use of various design
and production techniques.
•
Quality: Sensitive to the banking industry demands, printing
businesses maintain tight quality control procedures.
•
Production speed
•
Cost
In addition to their need to adhere to required print quality
standards, they have the following concerns about the printing
operation:
•
Traditional MICR printing devices are labor intensive.
