Abstract
A check scanner endorses or cancels a check with a print head when the check is driven in the forward direction, and franks, endorses or prints again when the check is driven in the reverse direction. Two separate images of each side of the check are generated for digital comparison and verification purposes by scans with contact image sensors (CIS), with one image from scanning in the forward direction and another image from scanning in the reverse direction. A high resolution image may be obtained by CIS scanning when the check is driven in the forward direction and an even higher resolution image may be obtained by CIS scanning when the check is driven in the reverse direction. Alternately, a grey scale image may be obtained by CIS scanning when the check is driven in the forward direction, and a color image may be obtained by CIS scanning when the check is driven in the reverse direction. After scanning, the check is returned back to the original point of entry.
