OCR Check Character

You may want to print and verify a check character in order to enhance the

Scan the OCR Modulo 10 or OCR Modulo 36 Check Character bar code to
specify the type of check character used in the OCR strings you're scanning.
The imager will then only read OCR character strings with a valid check
character. The imager transmits the OCR data without the check character data.
