MICR fonts
Introduction
Magnetic Ink Character Recognition, or MICR, is a character recognition technology used
primarily by the banking industry to facilitate the processing of cheques. The technology allows
computers to read information such as account numbers of printed documents. The magnetic
reader requires specific MICR fonts. The major MICR fonts used around the world are E-13B and
CMC-7.
You can send both outline and bitmap MICR fonts from the host with the datastream of the
transaction print job. You can also install outline MICR fonts in the Settings Editor.
NOTE
Do not alter the MICR fonts in any way. Altering the MICR fonts can cause read errors.
Support of MICR fonts
The Océ VarioPrint® 6000 MICR
+
 line supports all standard MICR fonts with this machine.
Error handling
IPDS
In IPDS, a transaction print job with MICR fonts requires that the machine is in MICR mode. When
the machine is not in MICR mode, you will receive an error massage on your host that MICR
printing is not supported. This error can only be resolved by cancelling the stream.
PCL
In PCL, this is not prevented. The data stream in PCL has no information on the used MICR fonts
and therefore, the system does not check whether it is in MICR mode. It is the responsibility of the
operator to check this.
