Generic MICR Fundamentals Guide
Glossary-11
ribbon encoding
The use of conventional computer impact printing technology for
MICR encoding, using a print chain with the E13B characters on
it and a special ribbon impregnated with magnetic material.
routing number
A numbering system that identifies the issuing bank.
safety paper
Bond paper having a surface design and/or hidden warning
indicator to identify any attempt at fraudulent alteration.
serial field
See domestic field. (Australia)
serial number
Often used to refer to the sequential check or document number
found in the auxiliary domestic and extra auxiliary domestic
fields. (Australia)
serial symbol
See domestic symbol.
Sheffield
Smoothness
A device for measuring the roughness or smoothness of a paper.
Higher numbers indicate rougher papers.
signal level/
strength
The current (or equivalent voltage) produced by a magnetic ink
character in a reader/sorter or signal reader. Each character has
a nominal peak signal level (designated in the ANSI
specification), as well as an acceptable signal level range. This is
also called “signal strength.”
single-slot reader
sorters
See waveform reader sorters.
sizing
Resin that is added to papers during manufacturing to increase
the paper's resistance to liquid penetration. Also helps prevent
feathering or fraying.
skew
Allowable tilt or angle of a character, to the left or right, measured
with respect to the bottom edge of the document.
smoothness
The degree of continuous, even finish on paper.
stiffness
The degree to which paper resists bending.
substance
The weight in pounds of a ream of paper cut to 17 by 22 inch/432
by 559 mm standard size for business papers. Similar to basis
weight of other types of paper.
surface strength
Term indicating how well fibers and chemicals are bonded to the
surface of a paper. Papers with low surface strength may release
fibers and particles in the printer, causing machine
contamination.
symbol
An E13B character separating the fields or separating digits
within a field. U.S. symbols are amount, On-Us (domestic),
transit, and dash.
tensile strength
A measure of paper's resistance to tearing.
