Checks have been around for years as the way for people and companies to pay others for their services or to buy services and supplies. Today, people as individuals are beginning to convert mostly to debit and credit cards, thus is doing much less check writing as the financial world is changing with the introduction of the Internet. Businesses are changing the way they checks as well with automatic drafts but there is still plenty of check writing. Either the way that companies write checks is to purchase check paper that is preprinted with all the bank info on it for them or they purchase check stock to print their own checks with a special ink.

HP MICR toner is a type of toner that contains Magnetic Ink Character Recognition technology to print the numbers and special characters at the bottom of the check stock so that the bank can read the company’s account information. Blank check stock comes with different amounts of security features installed on them to help prevent check fraud. The more expensive check paper has more security features thus enabling a much higher security from fraud. The HP MICR toner also helps increase the check’s security features.
