Accounts Payable is a critical function of every business, and it is important that invoices are paid quickly and efficiently. While personal check payments have been declining over the past decade, the majority of businesses still use check payments to pay their bills, according to the Federal Reserve's 2016 Payment Study. MICR printers can offer these businesses the ability to minimize the risk of fraud and human error, while also saving money.

Before MICR Check Printers: Issuing A/P check payments manually

The majority of Acounts Payable (A/P) departments paying invoices through check payments are still using pre-printed check stock and a laser or dot matrix printer instead of a MICR printer. Those pre-printed checks alone pose some significant risks:

  • Cost – Pre-printed check stock is expensive to purchase, store, distribute and re-order if company information changes.
  • Fraud – A pre-printed check is the easiest instrument to alter or forge.
  • Human Error – Manual processes are vulnerable to mistakes.

After: Automating the Accounts Payable (A/P) check issuance process with MICR Printers

An integrated software and hardware solution created specifically for check printing creates a secure, cost-effective method for printing A/P invoices on-demand while providing control over the entire process.
