The TROY MICR E-13B and CMC-7 MICR fonts have been specifically engineered for your TROY Security Printing Solution to ensure the highest quality MICR printing in the industry. The TROY font collection provides seamless integration and security within your Windows-based check printing application. All TROY fonts are permanently programmed into the TROY Font DIMM to ensure consistent high-quality MICR printing and to prevent unauthorized use of these fonts on another printing system. Your TROY Security Printing Solution includes the following fonts:

•TROY MICR Font (E-13B and CMC-7)

•TROY Security Font (English and Spanish)

•TROY Convenience Fonts (Enhanced, Large and Small)

•TROY Reverse Helvetica Font

•TROY OCR Fonts (type A and B)

•British Pound and Euro symbols

•TROY POSTNET and Barcode Fonts (not available for TROY 2300 Font DIMM Kits)

The following paragraphs provide some basic information for accessing and using the TROY fonts. It is important that these fonts are kept secure to prevent unauthorized use and that the fonts remain unaltered to ensure accurate rendering by your printer. All TROY fonts are permanently programmed into the TROY Font DIMM and cannot be directly accessed through the printer control panel or other external means.

To access the TROY fonts in a Windows environment, you must first install the Windows printer driver for the model of HP printer being installed. Follow the instructions in TROY Quick-Start Guide to install the printer driver and Windows support files, enabling you to select these fonts from any Windows-based application. To print the TROY E13-B and CMC-7 MICR fonts, your printer must be set to MICR enabled mode, and a TROY MICR toner cartridge must be installed in the printer. Many commercial MICR check-printing applications are pre-programmed to access the TROY MICR fonts.

If you are using a non-Windows application to print MICR documents, the escape sequence for each font must be programmed into your check-printing application in order to “call” each of the selected fonts. The <Esc> character is ASCII character number 27 (hexadecimal number 1B). Refer to the end of this section for each escape sequence (displayed above each character map) used to call each TROY font.
