1.5.2.4 Notes on Using the Endorsement Print Mechanism ❏ The endorsement print mechanism (abbreviated as E/P) enables printing of endorsements as part of a sequence that is automatically processed: MICR reading, printing an endorsement on the back side of a personal check, and printing on the surface of it. Once the end of the paper exceeds the E/P print head position, reverse paper feeding to the front side is not possible. ❏ When the endorsement printing is executed after a MICR reading, the printer feeds the paper forward automatically after receiving a command to print the endorsement; then the printer starts printing up to approximately 7.0 mm (0.28 in.) from the end of the check paper by using reverse paper feeding. ❏ Since the E/P printing format is assumed to print an endorsement on a U.S. personal check, the print begins on the back side of the paper. (As viewed from the front of the printer, the endorsement printing characters are upside down.) ❏ The printing sequence for slip paper is different, depending on whether an endorsement print mechanism is installed. That is, when the E/P is installed, once the printing exceeds the E/P printable area and the slip paper is fed forward, reverse paper feeding must be prohibited. Consider this when developing application programs. ❏ The E/P printing must be not performed on copy paper. Otherwise, a paper jam may occur or the E/P may be broken. Because E/P printing feeds the paper in a reverse paper feed direction, the paper may be wrinkled. ❏ In some case paper feeding may not be accurate when E/P printing is performed on check paper. This may depend on the width of the check paper. Therefore, it is recommended for the user to check in advance whether the check paper prints correctly or not. 1.5.3 MICR Reader (When the Printer is Used with the MICR Reader) 1.5.3.1 Reading method Magnetic bias 1.5.3.2 Recognition rating 98% or more (at 25 °C, 77 °F) Recognition rating is defined as follows Recognition rating (%)= Total number of checks − (number of sheets misread or not identified.)
