STEP 6
: Check the MICR Print Quality 
Maintaining high-quality MICR printing is vital to error-free reader/sorter processing of your checks at the bank.  
TROY’s Security Printing Solutions have been consistently shown to have the lowest bank reject rates in the 
industry.  Poor MICR print quality will cause your checks to be rejected by the bank’s automatic MICR readers, 
and therefore, you may incur significant manual processing fees from your bank for each rejected check.  The 
TROY MICR Quality Document is resident in your TROY printer and can be printed out at any time using the 
TROY Printer Utility or printer control panel.  Use the TROY MICR Quality Document as a reference to 
evaluate the general print quality of your TROY Security Printing Solution. 
 
T
O PRINT THE 
TROY MICR 
QUALITY DOCUMENT
 
NOTE: TROY Secure EX series printers must have the printer keylock switch 
set to “Print MICR” to enable printing of the MICR Quality Document. 
 
1.  From the Printer Utility Main Window, click on the printer you wish to manage. 
2.  If you have already set an administrator password, type the password into the password box at the bottom of 
the Main Window.  If a password is not set, then leave the password box blank. 
3. From the Main Window, click on File
and then click on Print
4. Click on Quality Document.  Choose 
either the E-13B or CMC-7 version of this 
document.  The printer will automatically 
print the TROY MICR Quality Document. 
 
Identifying Print Defects 
Continuous streaks and/or voids that appear on 
the MICR Quality Document are usually the 
result of a low toner condition.  A scratch or 
other contamination on the surface of the 
optical drum inside the toner cartridge can also 
cause streaking and other print quality defects. 
 
To ensure optimum MICR print quality, 
always use a TROY MICR toner cartridge 
with your TROY Security Printing Solution.  
Always replace the TROY MICR toner 
cartridge with a new TROY MICR toner 
cartridge when a low toner condition exists.  
MICR documents printed after a low toner 
condition occurs may not meet MICR 
specifications and cause your printed checks to 
be rejected, thereby incurring significant 
manual processing fees to you by your bank. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
NOTE:  If your TROY Security Printing Solution develops a noticeable print quality defect that cannot be corrected 
by replacing the MICR toner cartridge, the MICR Quality Document can be sent to TROY for evaluation. 
Do not continue to print MICR documents if print defects are present
