Verifying MICR
Print Quality

The TROY Printer Utility provides the ability to generate a Windows MICR demonstration page and a PCL
MICR demonstration page. The TROY Print Quality Document and printer configuration pages are resident in
the TROY MICR DIMM, and can be printed at any time from the printer control panel or through the TROY
Printer Utility. Use these test and demonstration pages to verify your printer’s configuration, functionality, and
MICR print quality.

Maintaining high-quality MICR printing is vital to error-free reader/sorter processing of your checks at the bank.
TROY’s MICR printing solutions have been consistently shown to have the lowest bank reject rates in the
industry. Poor MICR print quality will cause your checks to be rejected by the bank’s automatic MICR readers
and therefore, you may incur significant manual processing fees from your bank for each rejected check. The
TROY Print Quality Document is resident in the firmware of your TROY MICR solutions printing system and
can be printed out at any time using the TROY Printer Utility or printer control panel. Use the TROY Print
Quality Document as a reference to evaluate the general print quality of your TROY MICR printer.
