Optical Character Recognition (OCR) Printing
OCR Symbols
The 4247 prints a comprehensive set of OCR-A and OCR-B characters derived from standards developed
by the International Standards Organization (ISO) and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).
All OCR character shapes produced by the 4247 Printer are not identical with the shapes defined in these
standards. Users should test OCR printing with their scanning equipment to verify satisfactory
performance.
