State Print & Mail Facility Upgrades Check Printing Solution to TROY AccurioPress 6136P MICR

The Challenge

The customer's printing and mailing facility relied heavily on Ricoh 4100 MICR printers to handle the high volume of state-issued checks. As these machines approached their end of life, the facility faced growing concerns about production efficiency and security.

The Ricoh printers, which utilized a continuous feed system, were prone to printing voided checks. This resulted in costly wastage and unnecessary delays in processing payments. Additionally, the facility needed a solution that could handle the large workload while offering enhanced security for check printing, a critical component for government financial operations.

The Solution

Recognizing the operational challenges posed by the outdated Ricoh 4100 MICR printers, the customer sought a more reliable and efficient solution to handle their high-volume check printing needs. After evaluating several options, they chose to upgrade to the TROY AccurioPress 6136P MICR printers—a cutting-edge solution designed for both precision and security in large-scale print operations.

The TROY AccurioPress 6136P MICR printers provided a major upgrade over the older continuous feed system by offering cut-sheet technology, which immediately resolved the issues of misaligned and voided checks. In addition to improved print accuracy, the AccurioPress’s advanced technology enabled faster processing, allowing the facility to increase its output without compromising quality. This resulted in more reliable production cycles, reducing costly delays and ensuring state-issued payments were processed on time.

✅ Elimination of Voided Checks: The switch from continuous feed to sheet-fed printing significantly reduced the occurrence of voided checks. The TROY AccurioPress 6136P MICR offered precise printing control, which resulted in fewer errors, reducing material wastage and improving the overall efficiency of the check printing process.
