MICR read head present
This scanner includes a magnetic MICR read head that reads the iron-oxide-encoded characters at the bottom of the cheque. The magnetic signal provides a primary read for the routing number, account number, and cheque number. An optical read of the same characters is typically used as confirmation or fallback.
For the downstream processing layer — normalizing the raw MICR string, extracting fields, running validation, and surfacing exceptions — see the MICR reader page. To connect this scanner to a full remote deposit capture workflow with OCR, handwriting recognition, and audit controls, see scanner SDK remote deposit capture.
