Selecting MICR fonts Checking the font version Selecting the wrong font can result in improper signal strength and high reject rates at the bank. To make sure that you have the font that you want, print a question mark, ?, in the MICR line. While the resulting document does not have a valid MICR line, the printed font is obvious. You can also print a test pattern. Refer to "Printing MICR test forms," for the procedure. The test forms contain font version information: the font name, revision character (if applicable), and the datastream type (PS, PCL, LCDS).

high reject rates at the bank. To make sure that you have the font
that you want, print a question mark, ?, in the MICR line.
While
the resulting document does not have a valid MICR line, the
printed font is obvious.
You can also print a test pattern. Refer to
“Printing MICR test forms,” for the procedure.
The test forms contain font version information: the font name,
revision character (if applicable), and the datastream type (PS,
PCL, LCDS).
