Paul:
I think that was a 1419 MICR machine and no it would not tolerate it.
This machine was from the 60's and 70's and you had to have a book
that contained the timings of machine instructions as you had so many
micro seconds to select a stacker. or it would be rejected.

An ex-cow-orker once told me of having worked in a bank with a
channel attached
MICR document reader. It couldn't have tolerated a one-second
hiatus because
it had to read a document and select a stacker during mechanical
motion. I
wonder if such devices still exist.
