PRODUCT OVERVIEW
XEROX DOCUPRINT NETWORK PRINTER SERIES INSTALLATION PLANNING GUIDE FOR MODELS 96/4635/180 NPS 1-7
MICR printing features
The DocuPrint 96 MICR NPS, 4635 MICR NPS, and 180 MICR NPS
produce a Magnetic Ink Character Recognition (MICR) line on
negotiable and turnaround documents such as checks and bills. The
MICR printing system prints documents using magnetic ink and
special fonts to create machine readable information that allows for
quick document processing.
In general, MICR is used to print accounting and routing information
on blank checks and other negotiable documents. The magnetic
encoding capabilities can be used for any printed output.
The following illustrates a check printed with a MICR line in U.S.
format. The entire MICR line, which consists of numbers and
characters (called symbols), is printed using magnetic ink.

The 96 MICR, 4635 MICR, and 180 MICR NPS meet ABA standards
and ANSI and ISO specifications for automatic check handling. They
print the variable data and the MICR line at the same time. This
single-pass printing capability reduces processing time and costs.
Unsupported features The DocuPrint 96 MICR, 4635 MICR, and 180 MICR NPS do not
support the security and audit feature or bar code reading. In
addition, although the Line Thickening selection and the Virtual
Printer Imaging parameters are available when you use MICR, it is
not recommended that you use these features when printing MICR
documents as they corrupt the MICR line.
In general, all print quality adjustments and enhancement settings
should be set at the nominal settings when printing MICR output.
