Magnetic Ink Character Recognition

Magnetic Ink Character Recognition (MICR) is a technology, extensively used by banks, which combines character recognition software with special ink and printed numbers and characters. When a document that contains this ink needs to be read, typically it will be passed through a machine (a cheque scanner) which magnetises the ink and then translates the magnetic information into numbers and characters.

Typically, numbers and characters found on the bottom of cheques will contain the cheque number, sort number and account number printed using Magnetic Ink. MICR provides a secure, high-speed method of scanning and processing this information.
