PAPER AND OTHER SUPPLIESA-14 XEROX DOCUPRINT 96/4635/180 IPS SYSTEM OVERVIEW GUIDEMICR toolsYou can use the following tools to determine whether the MICRoutput is printing within MICR specifications:• MICR Positioning and Dimension Gauge.• 8 Power (X) Comparator with MICR grid.Note: You should use the Custom Transfer Assist Blade to ensureacceptable MICR line quality on all MICR printing systems that usenonstandard paper sizes.MICR Positioning and Dimension GaugeThe MICR Positioning and Dimension Gauge (part number600T80025) consists of a thin sheet of flexible plastic attached to thebottom of a piece of hard thick plastic. The gauge is provided in a kitthat includes a small magnifying glass.To use the gauge, place the printed output between the two piecesof plastic. This allows you to compare the MICR output elementsagainst industry standard output. Using this process, you can verifythe character spacing, check the horizontal and vertical alignment,and look for spots and voids.MICR comparatorYou use the eight power (X) comparator with MICR grid to comparethe characters on the MICR output to industry standard output.The comparator is an optical tool that magnifies each character eighttimes. It has a built-in scale that measures the size of the MICRcharacters and checks for spots and voids (deletions).Keep the following in mind when using the 8 Power (X) Comparatorwith MICR grid:• Patterned paper can cause viewing problems. You should usewhite paper when you perform quality evaluations.• The quality of the MICR output may vary, depending on the typeof paper you use.• Handle the comparator with care. The grid is printed on thebottom and may be damaged or worn off in time.You can use the comparator with transmitted or reflected light.
