Figure 6-3. Portion of E13B calibration document
The calibration document should be used once during each shift,
or just prior to reading the On-Us signal strength from any output
document. It may be used for a total of five hours in the MICR
reader. When it begins to wear out, the value of the signal
strength changes, and the document is no longer useful.
Testing sample documents
You should make every effort to detect problems in a MICR job
before the documents enter circulation.
•
Regularly monitor the printer output.
•
Regularly run test documents that simulate production jobs.
•
Thoroughly test all new MICR applications to detect design
flaws.
•
Take production samples while each MICR job is printing.
While a MICR job is running, operator inspection is required to
insure the quality of the output. This inspection should include
the following:
•
At start of job: Horizontal position, vertical position, voids,
spots, MICR line appearance, and MICR line content on at
least seven sheets
