type of OCR format you intend to read. See "OCR Templates" if you want to create a custom “template” or character string that defines the length and content of OCR strings that will be read with your imager. Note: Setting the template and check character options are essential for OCR reading. OCR Off turns off all OCR capability in the scanner, so the scanner will be able to scan linear, stacked, matrix, and composite bar codes, but not OCR fonts. In addition, any OCR templates you have created are erased.
h represents character from user-defined variable “h” l represents any uppercase letter t marks the start of a new template r multi row indicator All other characters represent themselves. Spaces can be used. Note: In MICR E13 B templates, TOAD characters (capital letters T, O, A, and D), represent Transit, On Us, Amount, and Dash.

Then scan 414243 from the inside back cover (the hex characters for “A,” “B,” and “C”), and scan the d three more times. Scan Save OCR Template. This would let you read any string of three digits, “ABC,” then any string of three digits, for example: Adding Spaces You may also need to put spaces in your template.
Template symbol. Scan the d from the OCR Programming Chart in the back of this manual eight times, then scan the t to create the “or” statement. Then you would scan the characters for the second template. Scan d four times, scan l two times, then scan d two more times. Scan Save OCR Template. This would let you read either type of format, for example: You can string together as many templates as you need. OCR Template Codes Note: Reading more than three rows of OCR is not recommended.
