Quality control Debossment and embossment Debossment is the depression of the paper surface caused by printing pressure. It is commonly associated with letterpress and impact printing technologies, and is not produced by xerographic printing. However, when the bank adds the amount to the Amount field, unacceptable debossment could result at that point. The maximum depression allowed is 0.010 inch/0.03 mm. The amount of debossment is determined by measuring the distance between the lowest point of each encoded character and the maximum reading obtained from the surrounding paper within that character space on the same horizontal plane. Embossment refers to an image extending above the surface of the paper. This can occur in xerographic printing as well as in letterpress and impact printing. The maximum allowable embossment is 0.0006 inches/0.02 mm. The amount of embossment is determined by measuring the distance between the highest point of each encoded character and the minimum reading obtained from the surrounding paper within that character space on the same horizontal plane. 6-20 Generic MICR Fundamentals Guide
