[GNC] check printing

[greg]

Hmmm, I don't do "electronic" payments or deposits.  But thenn, I've 
never been hacked ;)  MICR is still a thing because The Fed requires 
it.  Lots of MICR toner cartridges for sale online.  I have 2 MICR toner 
cartridges that came with a printer I bought via a local Craigslist.
