Notes On Using The Micr Reader - Epson TM-H6000III User Manual

English
❏
Be sure to consider these other conditions that may reduce image quality:
• Extremely low density of handwriting on the front of a check.
• Extremely high density of the background of a check.
• An extremely large variation in the density and color tone of the
background of a check.
• Many folds or wrinkles in a check.
• Exposure of the image scanning part of the printer to strong sunlight.
• Any foreign object, such as sand, entering the printer and scratching the
glass surface of the scanner.
CAUTION:
Do not insert checks with staples in them. This may cause paper jams, MICR
reading errors, and damage to the MICR head.
Be sure the checks are flat, without curls, folds, or wrinkles.
Follow the steps below to use the slip image scanner. (See illustration E.)
1. Wait until the SLIP LED flashes. Then insert the check face up with the right
side of the check against the right side of the paper guide as far as it will go.
Be sure that the MICR characters are on the right. See the arrow in the
illustration for the proper location of the MICR characters.
2. The printer will detect the check and start drawing it in. When the printer
starts drawing it in, let go of the check immediately. When the printer ejects
the check and the SLIP LED starts flashing again, remove the check by pulling
it straight out; do not pull it at an angle.

Notes on Using the MICR reader

Do not install the printer near any magnetic fields. Be especially careful where you
install your display device, and be sure to check the recognition rate of the MICR
reader with the display device in place.
Make sure that the printer is not subjected to any impact or vibration when it is
performing a MICR reading.
Endorsement Printing
See illustration F.
If your printer has the optional endorsement printing mechanism, install the
endorsement ribbon following the steps below.
Use genuine Epson ERC-41 ribbon cassettes.
Note:
Be sure to turn on the power before installing a ribbon cassette.
1. Turn the ribbon cassette knob. Then open the unit cover.
2. Inside the printer, push the levers backward to open the unit.
Note:
Do not open the unit during printing.
3. Insert the ribbon and turn the knob again to seat the ribbon; then close the
printer.
