Abstract
A means and method to enhance the security of personalized and variable print-on-demand data on vital records or documents, such as checks, by inkjet printing. A specially formulated penetrating ink prints information on the front side to create an indelibly seamless 'dual image' on the reverse side. The reverse image symbiotically complements the primary image on the print side to provide ease of authentication and tamper resistance. Specially formulated MICR ink is used to print information on the front side. Specially formulated penetrating may be different color. Either invisible ultraviolet fluorescent penetrating ink or visible penetrating ink may be used to create the image on the reverse side. The print side and reverse side are printed using single-pen printing by orienting inkjet two different pens in a series.
