    摘要: A point of sale printer includes a magnetic reader for processing transactions and payment by check at a checkout point of a retail establishment. The printer includes a magnetic or MICR reader located at a predetermined point on the printer's document travel path and a print head located at the same point on the document travel path but laterally offset from the MICR reader to allow the printer to print customer receipts and a journal as well as reading MICR information from checks and endorsing the check after it is cleared. A pressure pad is used with the magnetic read head of the MICR reader which utilizes a pressure film which flexes when a document is inserted between the magnetic read head and the pressure film to provide a spring loading force on the magnetic read head while still allowing the document to be moved smoothly past the magnetic read head. A method for processing checks using the printer utilizes bidirectional motion of the check along the document travel path to magnetize the MICR information, read the MICR information and print the endorsement on the check.

    摘要: A method, apparatus and article of manufacture is disclosed for eliminating periodic noise detected by a magnetic read head. In particular a time varying signal electrical signal is provided by a magnetic read head. The signal is sampled and stored in memory. Samples known not to contain a desired signal are used to extract a waveform representative of a single period of periodic noise. The representative waveform is synchronized with samples containing the desired signal and used to compensate the samples containing the desired signal in order to minimize, reduce, cancel or remove the effects of the periodic noise on samples containing the periodic noise. The compensated samples are then processed to obtain information from the desired signals.

    摘要: A circuit for controlling multiple input voltages to produce a given output voltage using only a single DC-to-DC converter. Sensing of the input voltages supplied to the circuit effect automatic switching to route the applied voltages between input terminals and output terminals, and configure the feedback network selecting the output voltage of the DC-to-DC converter. The DC-to-DC converter thus configured provides required output voltages not appearing in the input supply.

    摘要: An apparatus which controls a plurality of motors and/or print heads, such as motors used in printers or the like, includes a microprocessor which outputs selection signals on one of its output pins. The signal is multiplexed through a plurality of frequency response switches to select one of the motors. Thereafter, the selected motor is energized by a common set of drivers which are activated by control signals that are outputted on other output pins of the microprocessor.
