ABSTRACT:
An improved method for accurately and correctly laser imprinting a blank check form with MICR information. The method also provides for visual confirmation that the MICR information is properly positioned on the laser printed check. The steps of a suitable method comprise: (a) providing a press printed blank check sheet which includes a line of horizontal tear perforations and printed text characters; (b) laser printing under the control of a computer program on the preprinted blank check with magnetic ink in MICR font a pair of indices of registration, MICR information in the "clear band" area of the blank check and other text necessary to complete the check. The indices of registration may include horizontal bracket lines for straddling the perforations and a rectangular box for enclosing selected preprinted text. If the laser printed bracket lines do in fact straddle the perforations and the printed box properly encloses the selected text then the printed MICR information is correctly positioned.
