STEP 6
: Check the MICR Print Quality
Maintaining high-quality MICR printing is vital to error-free reader/sorter processing of your checks at the bank.
TROY's Security 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 MICR Quality Document is resident in your TROY printer and can be printed out at any time using the
TROY Printer Utility or printer control panel. Use the TROY MICR Quality Document as a reference to
evaluate the general print quality of your TROY Security Printing Solution.

Identifying Print Defects
Continuous streaks and/or voids that appear on
the MICR Quality Document are usually the
result of a low toner condition. A scratch or
other contamination on the surface of the
optical drum inside the toner cartridge can also
cause streaking and other print quality defects.
To ensure optimum MICR print quality,
always use a TROY MICR toner cartridge
with your TROY Security Printing Solution.
Always replace the TROY MICR toner
cartridge with a new TROY MICR toner
cartridge when a low toner condition exists.
MICR documents printed after a low toner
condition occurs may not meet MICR
specifications and cause your printed checks to
be rejected, thereby incurring significant
manual processing fees to you by your bank.
NOTE: If your TROY Security Printing Solution develops a noticeable print quality defect that cannot be corrected
by replacing the MICR toner cartridge, the MICR Quality Document can be sent to TROY for evaluation.
Do not continue to print MICR documents if print defects are present.
