Introduction to the Océ VarioPrint® 6000 MICR series
Introduction
The Océ VarioPrint® 6000 MICR series is a series of high-volume, cut-sheet printers.
These printers support magnetic ink character recognition (MICR). MICR printing is
intended primarily for transaction printing of valuable documents like cheques. A mag-
netic reader can read documents printed with MICR toner.
The Océ VarioPrint® 6000 MICR series uses the Océ Gemini Instant Duplex Technol-
ogy. This technology enables the machine to print MICR toner on both the front side
and the back side of a sheet at the same time. Depending on your version, the sustained
print speed ranges from 170, 200 to 250 images per minute (A4 / Letter) when you print
a 2-sided document. The print speed for 1-sided documents (A4/Letter) is 125 images
per minute.
The Océ VarioPrint® 6000 MICR series prints only with MICR toner. A combination
of MICR toner and regular toner is not possible. However, you can also print regular
documents with MICR toner.
This section gives a short description of the main features of the machine.
Note:
Not all the configurations mentioned in this user manual are available worldwide. Please
contact your local dealer for the available configurations in your country.

feeder is not possible. The operator panel displays
the roll feeder and gives feedback about the status
of the roll feeder. For example whether the roll is
full or empty. Please refer to the documentation
of the roll feeder manufacturer for more informa-
tion, for example about replacing an empty roll.
