OCR Programming
Use this section to program the Imager for optical character
recognition (OCR). The 2D AS-9500 series Engine reads 6 to 60
point OCR typeface.
Note: OCR is not as secure as bar codes. To enhance security in
OCR applications, create an OCR template to match the data, and
print an OCR check character.
The 2D AS-9500 series Engine will read OCR-A, OCR-B, U.S.
Currency Serial Number (Money), MICR E-13B, and SEMI fonts.
You can either select an OCR default, or create your own custom
template for the type of OCR format you intend to read. See
"OCR" on page 9-1 for programming codes that will enable your
imager to read OCR-A, OCR-B, U.S.
Currency, MICR E-13B, or SEMI fonts. See "OCR Templates" on
page 9-3 if you want to create a custom “template,” or character
string that defines the length and content of OCR strings that will
be read with your imager.
Note: Setting the template and check character options are
essential for OCR reading.
