Check Printers

MICR check printers matter when it comes to check printing applications.

You need to ensure the security, dependability, and quality of your payment-processing environment.

Our check printers are engineered specifically for printing MICR-encoded checks and other negotiable documents in a single check printer pass, with all necessary information including logo, signature, customer data and MICR line.

Source Technologies is the market leader in secure MICR check printing technology and the choice of thousands of customers using tens-of-thousands of our check printers. All check printers are backed by a MICR Check Printing Performance Guarantee.

Source Technologies’ check printers are engineered specifically for printing MICR-encoded checks and other negotiable documents in a single check printer pass, with all necessary information including logo, signature, customer data and MICR line.

Source Technologies has been delivering secure, on-demand check printers for more than 20 years.

Source Technologies’ Check Printers include the following security features:

• Secure Numeric Font - Our unique Source Technologies-designed font is very difficult to alter because of a special background and very small text & numeric print embedded in the amount line of the check.
• Microprint Font - Extremely small type font is used to embed micro text and numbers within lines of print on the MICR document.
• Password Protection - Prevents access to check-printing resources stored in the check printers (signatures, MICR fonts, form overlays) without the proper password.
• DES Decryption - One of the highest levels of security available - All of Source Technologies' check printers are DES-enabled, allowing them to decrypt an encrypted print stream prior to printing (requires ST controlled-print software).
• Bi-Directional Communication - Alerts the user to any MICR problems through their payment software application. Also allows the user to query check printers regarding MICR settings. (Bi-directional communication is also supported in ST controlled-print software applications).
• Set-Copy Control - Ensures that a print job only prints once while in MICR mode- prevents fraud by disallowing the printing of multiple copies of a check.
• Auto Jam Recovery Disable - Automatically turns Jam recovery OFF when checks are being printed - prevents multiple copies of a check from being printed.
• ST Engineered E-13B and CMC7 Fonts - Designed specifically for use with ST check printers to produce highest achievable readability of MICR characters.
• MICRpoint - Ensures that MICR characters meet ANSI standards for MICR line placement on checks by allowing precise alignment when variances cannot be controlled in the print data stream.
• MICR Toner Sensing - Detects whether MICR toner or regular toner is installed in the printer to prevent printing negotiable documents with regular toner.
• Auto Density Control - Senses toner level remaining in a cartridge and adjusts density to optimize MICR print quality.
• Low Toner Warning and Auto Stop - Senses toner level remaining in a cartridge, warns user of a low condition, and automatically stops printing when toner reaches a level that could adversely impact MICR readability.
• Originally-Manufactured MICR Toner Cartridge - Toner formulation and cartridge design specific to each ST print engine ensures high print quality, excellent cartridge yield, and long fuser life.
• Optimized Fusing & Transfer Voltage - Automatically manages fusing temperature and transfer voltage to eliminate high-speed reader/sorter issues with MICR checks.
