Flash Memory is an optional feature. It is user managed and resources can be designated as
“secure” or “unsecure.” Secure resources are loaded to flash with the STL command and have
ID numbers greater than or equal to 10000. They can only be accessed by using the STP
command when the printer is in MICR mode. Unsecure resources do not require a password
and should be assigned an ID number less than 10000. Resources stored in flash memory
are not deleted when the printer is powered off. Flash memory is required for all Audit Trail
features.
Storing resources in RAM is also an option. Resources in RAM are deleted when the
printer is powered off or reset. For this reason check-related resources may need to be
loaded frequently. Resources stored in RAM cannot be password protected.
We recommend storing all check-related resources in secured flash memory.
MICR Menu
Your Secure MICR Printer contains a front panel menu specific to MICR applications. The
complete menu is as follows:
Security Lock
Audit Menu
Audit Location - Flash/Disk
Record Sorting
Overlay
Sum Field 4
Print Report
Setup Menu
MICR Type - Normal/Optraforms
Hex Transfer
Density Control
Use the menu button on the front of your printer to toggle through the menu options. To select
an option press the select (*) button. An item is selected when it has an asterisk (*) after it.
The Security Lock option allows the user to activate and set a front panel combination for
additional security. This feature prevents anyone from printing checks without the proper 8-
digit combination. See the MICR Mode Commands section of this chapter for more
information.
MICR Type designates the printer as a “normal” Source Technologies Secure MICR Printer
or as a Secure MICR OptraForms Printer. The default is “normal.” Hex Transfer and Density
Control are normally reserved for ST Technocal Support.
