Source Technologies, LLC ST9650 Secure MICR Printer User’s Guide 43
For instructional value, assume the current MICRpoint values are at 0, the default
values. For best positioning from using a gauge and the current printed output, the MICR
line needs to move up about 1/20th of an inch, and to the right ¼ of the typical character
width. The MICR character 0 is 0.091 inches wide. Move the line up 36 decipoints and to
the right about 15 decipoints. While in the MICR Menu with MICRpoint Adjustment
selected, select Horizontal. There should be two values: first a +/- choice followed by
some value. In this case, it’s 0 or Default. To Move horizontal 15 points, use the
UP/DOWN arrow keys to select +, a positive value. Then press the RIGHT arrow key.
Using the printer keypad, enter 15. Then select the center key to save the values. Again
from the Horizontal / Vertical options, use the DOWN arrow, and center key to enter
Vertical values. To move the MICR line UP requires a – or negative value. Use the
UP/DOWN keys to select -, and then use the RIGHT key to enter a value. In this
instructional case it’s 36. Using the key pad enter 36. Select the center key to save the
value. The values are stored in internal FLASH memory in the printer and will remain the
same until changed by the operator. Power ON/OFF cycles do not reset the values.
Assuming the measurements are correct, when test or production checks are printed,
the MICR Line should now be at the new location on the page.
