A MICR (14) encoder controlled to automatically print in MICR code the total dollar amount of a purchase as calculated by an electronic cash register (6) or other associated circuitry and indicated by the electrical signals therefrom to eliminate need for further keyboard entry. The electrical signals are obtained via releasable connectors at the juncture of a master terminal circuit (28) with various output devices (34, 36), input devices or a host computer system (38). In addition to MICR encoding, another regular printer (16) is controlled to print the payee's name, the date and the amount on the face of the check and other customer identification, verification or endorsement information on the back of the check. A receipt printer (34) is also controlled to print the total number of encoded checks, the dollar amount of each and the total dollar amount. Input/output ports enable communication with verification systems, other computers or other devices. |
