Selecting MICR fonts
Checking the font version
Selecting the wrong font can result in improper signal strength and
high reject rates at the bank. To make sure that you have the font
that you want, print a question mark, ?, in the MICR line. While
the resulting document does not have a valid MICR line, the
printed font is obvious. You can also print a test pattern. Refer to
“Printing MICR test forms,” for the procedure.
The test forms contain font version information: the font name,
revision character (if applicable), and the datastream type (PS,
PCL, LCDS).
The following table shows the version information that is displayed
on the test form for each font:
