Document processing Non-impact ribbon technology offers higher encoding speed and fewer matrix read processing issues. However, problems occur with transfer of ink to the paper. Paper roughness must be controlled. Also, for MICR laser printers, which apply a release agent or oil to the fuser, the specified fuser agent must be used and the metering system maintained according to Xerox schedules. Reader sorter function Reader sorters are machines that read magnetic ink characters that are printed using the E13B or the CMC7 fonts. Reader sorters recognize the magnetic waveform of the character, its magnetic pattern, its visual pattern (using OCR), or a combination of these characteristics. Reader sorters can be programmed to validate and sort by specified MICR line data fields. They may also be capable of endorsing, microfilming, imaging, and providing processing information in hardcopy. How well the document passes through the reader sorter depends of the following: • Document characteristics - MICR line format and placement - Print quality - Magnetic signal strength of the image - Paper characteristics. • Reader sorter characteristics - Reader sorter type - Setup adjustments - Quality and quantity of operator maintenance. - Operation of the reader sorter • Damage resulting from prior processing - Handling damage - Lead edge fluff Generic MICR Fundamentals Guide 5-3
