Paper facts Stiffness is lower across the grain direction than in the grain direction. Documents having the grain running parallel to the short dimension of the paper require special consideration to ensure adequate stiffness. Short grain MICR documents are restricted to papers with a basis weight of 24 pound/90 gsm or higher. Cutting precision Paper for MICR printing applications should be free of all defects that could interfere with reliable feeding, such as edge-padding and folded or bent sheets. NOTE: Fan all paper before loading it. The squareness of each sheet must be precisely controlled to ensure optimum MICR band registration. The dimensions must be controlled to ±.030 inch/0.762 mm. Papers that have been converted from continuous form paper present a risk of jams and poorly registered forms in a Xerox MICR laser printer.
