Do I have to send down OCR coordinates to do the MICR read?

Do I have to send down OCR coordinates to do the MICR read?

Q: When I go into the Ranger TCS under codeline a MICR zone is defined. Do I have to send down OCR coordinates to do the MICR read?

A: Although I know that the TransportInfo.ini file indicates that no MICR reader is present, did you try calling GetMicrText(1)?

WiseIP does not report the OCR-based MICR reader in the same way on the 7731 as it does on the 7780 and iTRAN. WiseIP returns an undocumented device model number for the 7731 MICR reader (0xC2A1).

This Ranger.ocx should update the TransportInfo.ini file to indicate that a MICR reader is present on 7731s.
