Abstract

A system for accurately controlling the position of documents as they are throughputted along a straight line path for purposes of MICR writing and reading thereon. Accurate control of document position along a linear path is obtained by minimizing speed variations of a throughputted document, by maintaining a throughputted document in good registration, and by holding closely proximate the throughputted document to the read or write head.
