Abstract:
    A magnetic character reader capable of reading information recorded on a record sheet with an optional printer, the size of the magnetic character reader being reduced by use of a shortened record sheet transport passage. The magnetic character reade includes: a reading unit (35) having a magnetic head (33) and a head presser (34); and a transport mechanism section (30) having a paper feed roller (21) and a paper pressing roller (22). The transport mechanism section (30) is arranged at a position adjacent to a reading unit (35) on reference line L which extends in a direction substantially perpendicular to a transport direction of a check P from a reading section of the reading unit. A paper feed roller (21) includes three transport sections (21a1 to 21a3). Three paper pressing rollers (22a1 to 22a3) which correspond to the three transport sections also are provided.
