MICR Check Position Gauge

The design with the flexible transparent sheet glued (at the bottom) to a sturdy card works remarkably well: with rulers it is hard to keep the check in one place, here the check is held tight.The included instructions are great, who knew you could have 14 different features on one ruler ?I was a bit surprised that the all measurements were in "decimal" notation (e.g. 3.75") mainly because some third party documentation I have for MICR uses fractional notation (3 3/4) but it makes sense since the ANSI documentation uses decimal notation.This helped us a lot with our IRD Check printing product.

This MICR gauge is great! I've used it in the past, and it really speeds up the check layout process and reduces the number of testing cycles with the bank. I'm looking forward to using it again with my current client who is implementing a new accounting system. Definitely worth the price! It also arrived within a couple of days or ordering it.

This is the best MICR ruler available. Much better and sturdy than other products I've seen listed here at Amazon. If you are testing checks for your business or institution, you need to have one of these. It clearly tells you where your MICR line needs to be. This will eliminate wasteful testing with your bank. The only reason I did not give this 5 stars is because I believe the ruler itself should come with some kind of holder or folding cover. I had bought a MICR ruler 10 years ago at another institution and it came with a plastic sleeve, kind of like a checkbook holder, that protected it and kept the papers telling you how to use it nice and neat. I wish this one came with something similar.

This has saved me a boatload of time when I work on updates to a customer's check layout.

This is a must have if you're setting up MICR printing. I tried to avoid buying one, but had to bite the bullet and purchase it. I do not regret it.

We were having difficulty getting the MICR data setup correctly for check printing in a new software package. Consultant recommended this product and it saved us back and forth time with the banks to review check setup.

Excellent product, delivered as promised. We spent nearly 2 months trying to get the proper alignment of the MICR line with our Canadian bank. They would request a batch of 10 checks, then tell us to adjust a particular item, then reject the checks asking us to adjust something else. Finally we purchased the MICR guage and we have the alignment correct! Wish we had known about this gauge ahead of time. Could have save weeks of waiting.

The item arrived on time and was packaged properly. We have been using this product for MICR alignment and check alignments and it is really helpful. The instructions were very clear. The product really helps us to minimize the development / delivery time.The quality of the ruler is great. It feels sturdy and well built.The markings on the ruler are clear and it can be used for US and Canada checks. Great little product and recommended for others who are into developing checks.
