Frequently Asked Questions

What makes this cartridge different from the regular 106R01374?

The toner inside. This is the MICR version of the 106R01374 — filled with magnetic ink character recognition toner, the formulation bank check readers scan. The cartridge shell, fit and 5,000-page rating match the standard cartridge; the powder is made for the magnetic line printed along the bottom of checks.

Will my bank accept checks printed with it?

No toner seller can honestly promise that. Acceptance depends on the whole print chain — signal strength, character formation, your check stock and your printer's condition — and only your bank or processor can confirm its requirements. What we can say is that this is genuine MICR-formulated toner. The sensible routine: print a small test batch and have your bank verify it before committing to a full check run.

Why does it cost the same as the standard cartridge?

Because we price it that way: $40.99, level with the standard 106R01374 single — about 0.82 cents per page either way. If your Phaser 3250 splits its time between office documents and payroll runs, there is no price penalty for keeping the MICR cartridge in it.

Can it print ordinary documents too?

Yes — MICR toner prints normal black text as well, so a machine loaded with this cartridge is not check-only. Many small offices standardize on the MICR cartridge so the printer is always check-ready without swapping supplies in and out.

Which printers can use it?

The same Phaser 3250 family as the standard cartridge: the Phaser 3250, the Phaser 3250D and the Phaser 3250DN. MICR changes the toner formulation, not the cartridge's fit.

What should I do if my test checks come back unreadable?

Start with the printer, not the cartridge: a worn or dirty machine prints weak characters with any toner. Clean the printer, confirm you are using proper check stock, and run a second small batch for your bank to scan. If the cartridge itself is at fault, it carries our one-year warranty and one-year free returns under the shipping and returns page; orders ship from warehouses in IL, PA, GA and CA, support answers Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM CST, and the standard version sits alongside the rest of the range on our Xerox toner page.
