# Configuring a MICR Check Scanner

The Check Scanner needs to be configured as an option on the Devices tab.

- All registers that connect to the MICR readers must be configured to use the device when an electronic check tender type is used.
- The receipt can be configured to control the number of copies printed with the e-check tender type. The default is one receipt, but this can be overridden so that two will print.

#### To Configure the Register Device for MICR:

- Access the store level location for the device: **POS Back Office > Locations > [name] > Registers > Edit Register > Devices tab**
