Activate the MICR mode
Introduction
If your printer contains the optional MICR license, you can use the machine for MICR
printing. Then you can print typical transactional documents like checks and other
valuable documents. Before you can use the MICR printing functionality, you must first
activate the MICR mode in the settings editor. The printer then identifies itself as a MICR
printer on your host (in the case of IPDS).
PrintGuard modules
In the MICR mode, the PrintGuard modules are activated automatically. It is not possible
to de-activate the PrintGuard modules in this mode. The PrintGuard modules postfuse
your prints to improve the quality and durability of the prints.
Before you begin
Make sure that the list of 'Scheduled jobs' is empty. Otherwise, you cannot activate
transaction printing.
To guarantee the quality of the MICR fonts, make sure that the 'Quality enhancement'
setting in the Settings Editor ('Transaction Printing' - 'Setups' - 'PCL' or 'IPDS' -
'Quality enhancement') is disabled. By factory default, this setting is disabled.
