MICR Not Reading Properly
Problem What to Do Where to Go
MICR (Magnetic Ink
Character Recognition)
Reader does not read or
misreads checks
Readjust the MICR Reader. See “Adjusting the MICR Reader” in
the “Diagnostics” chapter.
The optional Magnetic Ink Character Recognition (MICR) Reader feature has been factory adjusted for
a normal operating environment. However, additional devices, such as CRT monitors, or large metal
surfaces that are near the printer can affect the printer's magnetic field, causing intermittent reading
errors when the MICR Reader is in operation.
This condition can be easily diagnosed by checking the MICR Reader adjustment which allows you to
reset the MICR Reader if the factory setting has been altered by your operating environment. If you
have to adjust the MICR Reader frequently, you may want to move the printer away from metal
surfaces or CRT monitors.
