Commercial establishments that add MICR indicia to commercial instruments usually do so via laser printers that produce a high gain signal. Moreover, commercially printed documents that include MICR indicia can also result in a high gain signal. MICR indicia generated by laser printers are difficult to decode, using conventional DC biasing methods, because the laser-generated MICR high gain signals become clipped. Therefore, in order to decode these distorted signals, the present system processes both low and high gain signals to decode the raw MICR data.

System for and method of reading MICR using high and low gain signals

A wireless scanning system for a bar code scanner and a personal computer. The bar code scanner sends raw bar code data via a wireless connection to the personal computer. The personal computer decodes the raw bar code data, and sends the digitized version of the raw bar code data to a keyboard buffer, in order to simulate data from the keyboard at the personal computer based on the raw bar code data.
