4. Divide the sum of the products by the modulus (10 in this
case), only to the whole number. The balance is called
the remainder.

5. Subtract the remainder from the modulus.
The result becomes the check digit. In this case, the
check digit is 2.
10 - 8 = 2
Sum of Digits Calculation
This is an example of how the printer uses Sum of Digits to
calculate a check digit for this data:
5 2 3 2 4 5 2 1 9
1. Weights are applied to each digit, starting with the last
digit in the weight string. They are applied right to left,
beginning at the right-most position of the field.
Remember, a weight string must contain at least two
different numbers. This example has a weight string
of 1,2,3,4.
field: 5 2 3 2 4 5 2 1 9
weight string: 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4
2. Each digit in the field is multiplied by the weight assigned
to it:
field: 5 2 3 2 4 5 2 1 9
weight string: 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4
products: 20 2 6 6 16 5 4 3 36
