•  All characters in the transit number
•  Field separator: /
•  All characters in the account number
•  Field separator: /
•  All characters in the check number
•  Field separator: /
•  Two-digit status
•  Final carriage return

All parameters are ASCII characters, i.e. greater than or equal to 0x20, with the exception of a non-ASCII character 
enclosed in single quotes as a field separator.  This applies both to parameter specifications sent from application to 
printer, and to MICR data returned from printer to application.

Parameters are positional; their order in the parameter string is the order in which the parsed MICR data will be 
returned. Unrecognized parameters will be ignored, and processing of the parsing parameters will stop. Any data 
remaining after the unrecognized parameter will be treated as normal input data.

If parameters are not defined (for example, 1B 77 50 <CR> or 1B 77 70 <CR>) parsing is not selected. One status byte 
followed by all decoded MICR characters will be returned. The chart on the next page is the default parsing format if no 
other is selected:
