Refer to the Generic MICR Fundamentals Guide for a complete listing of the character mappings. Selecting PCL fonts The following HP PCL escape sequences are used to select the Xerox PCL MICR fonts: · · E13B 300 and 600 dpi font: <ESC>(0U<ESC>(s0p8. 00h9. 00v0s0b0T CMC7 600 dpi font (DP 100/115/135/155/180 EPS only): <ESC>(1U<ESC>(s0p8h9. 1v0s0b0T Refer to the Generic MICR Fundamentals Guide for a complete listing of the fixed pitch E13B and CMC7 MICR font characteristics and character mappings. The character mappings relate the input character to the printed character. If both the 300 and 600 dpi E13B fonts have been loaded on the printer, the font is selected based on the PCL Unit that was specified. You can use the PCL Unit of Measure command to set the PCL Unit to 600 (for example, <ESC>&u600D). Alternatively, you can override the resolution to 600 dpi in the queue. Refer to "Setting the font resolution, " later in this chapter, for information on setting the resolution in the queue. 2-14 MICR User Guide MICR fonts Setting the font resolution Before printing MICR jobs, you must set the resolution attribute appropriately for the queue to which you will be sending the jobs. The following table lists the different MICR font formats and the resolution at which each font should be printed. Font name and format LCDS PS PCL LCDS PS PCL Required resolution E13B 300 DPI 300 DPI and 600 DPI 300 and 600 DPI CMC7 300 DPI 600 DPI 600 DPI If your document contains scalable fonts or simple line art generated at 600 dpi, the differences between printing at 300 or 600 dpi are subtle. However, if your document contains bitmaps with a resolution of 600 dpi, printing at 300 dpi causes a degradation of image quality. To preserve image quality, regenerate the bitmaps at 300 dpi. Setting the font resolution for the queue Before sending a document to a print queue, you must make sure that the resolution of the font used in the document is the same as that specified for the queue. If the font and queue resolutions do not match (for example, a document with a 600 dpi font is sent to a 300 dpi queue), the font may print with subtle distortions and could be rejected at the bank. Follow this procedure to set the font resolution as a queue property: 1. On the Queue Manager window, right-click the desired queue name, and select Properties from the pop-up menu. MICR User Guide 2-15 MICR fonts 3. From the Default Format menu on the Properties window, select the appropriate default format for the Print Description Language (PDL) used in your MICR jobs. 4. Select the tab for the desired PDL decomposer (PostScript/PDF, PCL, or LCDS). On the selected tab, select the resolution from the Resolution (dpi) menu. Notes: · When selecting the resolution for PCL, you must select the Override check box if the PCL job does not explicitly specify 600 dpi as the PCL Unit. 1200 by 600 dpi is not a valid resolution for the DP 100/115/135/155/180 EPS. Selecting this option may result in job errors. · 2-16 MICR User Guide MICR fonts 6. Click OK. Changing font resolution for a job You can change the font resolution for an individual job from the Job Manager window. On the Job Manager window, right-click the job you want to change, then select Properties from the popup menu. Click OK.
