Section 6: MICR Features eye. This font provides protection against reproduction by most scanners and copiers because they cannot successfully print the tiny letters. Most check printers use this font in the signature area of their preprinted checks. We recommend using this font to help deter check fraud. The text in this font can either be fixed, such as the name of your organization, or it can be variable, such as the check amount and payee name. The use of variable text provides an additional method of protection against check counterfeiters. Use of the "MP" designate symbol to identify the line as MicroPrint is optional. The MicroPrint font only contains alphanumeric characters. Punctuation marks and spaces are ignored by this font and do not print. Bi-Directional Feedback Your Secure MICR Printer can provide MICR status messages to the check printing application. This feature is valuable in a networked environment with multiple printers or with users utilizing a printer located in another area. The application can get information on MICR settings such as toner cartridge type (MICR or regular), locked trays (which trays are locked to non-MICR applications), resident fonts/macros and audit trail settings. The printer can send the application MICR error messages such as "load MICR toner." When the printer receives the "@PJL INFO STVARIABLES" command it will report all MICR variables to the host. The MICR variables can also be seen by accessing the printer's front panel menu. Select Utilities>Print Menus. The second page of this menu shows the current MICR variable configuration. If USTATUS DEVICE=On, the printer will report PJL error 40020 for any MICR error which causes the printer to go off-line. It will appear in this format: @PJL USTATUS DEVICE CODE=40020 DISPLAY="MICR Password Error Press Go" ONLINE=FALSE (formfeed----HEX 0C) The code will always be 40020, only the display line will change to indicate the specific error. Resource Storage Check-related resources, such as form overlays and signatures, are stored in your printer with unique identification numbers. ID numbers must be less than 32767. Number 5001 is reserved for the Audit Trail overlay. Your Secure MICR Printer has two areas where you may store these resources: FLASH and RAM Memory.

Bi-Directional Feedback
Your Secure MICR Printer can provide MICR status messages to the check printing
application.
This feature is valuable in a networked environment with multiple printers or
with users utilizing a printer located in another area.
The application can get information on
MICR settings such as toner cartridge type (MICR or regular), locked trays (which trays are
locked to non-MICR applications), resident fonts/macros and audit trail settings.
The printer
can send the application MICR error messages such as “load MICR toner.”
When the printer receives the “@PJL INFO STVARIABLES” command it will report all MICR
variables to the host.
The MICR variables can also be seen by accessing the printer’s front
panel menu.
Select Utilities>Print Menus.
The second page of this menu shows the current
MICR variable configuration.
If USTATUS DEVICE=On, the printer will report PJL error 40020 for any MICR error which
causes the printer to go off-line.
It will appear in this format:
@PJL USTATUS DEVICE
CODE=40020
DISPLAY=”MICR Password Error
Press Go”
ONLINE=FALSE (formfeed----HEX 0C)
The code will always be 40020, only the display line will change to indicate the specific
error.
Resource Storage
Check-related resources, such as form overlays and signatures, are stored in your printer with
unique identification numbers.
ID numbers must be less than 32767.
Number 5001 is
reserved for the Audit Trail overlay.
Your Secure MICR Printer has two areas where you may
store these resources: FLASH and RAM Memory.
