3. Paper facts MICR applications have special paper, print, and finishing requirements. Refer to your printer operator guide for a complete list of supplies and options. Refer to Helpful Facts about Paper for information on solving printer problems relating to paper. Paper guidelines The paper that you use to print MICR documents must meet the criteria for the Xerox MICR laser printer and the specifications imposed by MICR industry standards. In addition, papers must resist alteration and prevent duplication of negotiable documents. They must support high print quality and feed through the printers properly. NOTE: Some banking authorities specify the type and weight of paper that should be used for check printing in that country. It is essential that only the specified paper be used. Follow these guidelines for best results: • Understand check stock security requirements, and use security features that do not degrade printer performance. • Do not accept delivery of paper or forms that are not reamwrapped in a moisture barrier. • Do not open paper reams until you are ready to load the paper into the printer. • Store paper in the printer room for at least 24 hours before using it. This allows the paper to stabilize to the temperature and relative humidity of the room. • Do not allow the printer room to become excessively humid or dry. This can cause a difference in moisture content between the edges and center of each sheet of paper, and result in feeding, image permanence, or image deletion problems.
