Canon CR-150
The CR-150 check transport is a versatile solution designed to streamline paper check processing in various financial settings. It is ideal for front-counter teller operations, merchant/remote deposit capture (RDC), remittance processing, and high-volume tasks like back-office/branch capture and lockbox applications. In this article, we’ll explore the features and benefits of the CR-150 check transport, demonstrating its effectiveness in improving efficiency, reducing errors and fraud, enhancing customer service, and lowering capital and processing costs.
Description
Compact and User-Friendly Design
The CR-150 boasts a simple, compact design tailored to fit seamlessly into teller counters and merchant desks. Its small footprint ensures it can be comfortably placed on countertops with limited workspace. What sets the CR-150 apart is its multifunction compatibility, combining the capabilities of several peripherals found at a teller station into a single, space-saving device. To further enhance usability, the CR-150 check transport is equipped with two additional USB ports, allowing for easy connectivity to other USB peripheral equipment like PIN pads, receipt printers, fingerprint authentication devices, and more.
Reliable Item Handling
The CR-150 offers reliable item handling, capable of scanning up to 150 items per minute with its 150-item Automatic Document Feeder (ADF). This high-speed scanning accommodates various document types, including business and personal checks. To prevent misfeeds, the CR-150 features a built-in ultrasonic sensor. Users can easily access the scanning glass and feed rollers for routine maintenance, thanks to the scanner’s user-friendly design.
Robust and Scalable Features
The CR-150 check transport is equipped with an array of features to enhance check processing. For compliance with strict audit regulations, it includes a built-in, five-line imprinter for printing and capturing endorsement information on checks. The scanner is modular and scalable, allowing additional functionality to be added as needed. Users can scan plastic or embossed cards with a dedicated card scanner, while the Magnetic Swipe Reader (MSR) captures data from the magnetic stripe of bank cards. The CR-150 supports popular check scanning software, including the industry-standard Ranger Transport API.
Precise Image Capture
High-quality image processing features, including Fine Text Filtering and Magnetic Optical Character Recognition (MOCR), ensure precise image capture. This results in sharper images with less distortion and improved Optical Character Recognition (OCR) accuracy. MOCR combines MICR reading with OCR processing for accurate MICR data capture, minimizing risks associated with digitizing checks.
Environmentally Conscious
The CR-150 check transport complies with ENERGY STAR® guidelines for energy efficiency. It also adheres to the EU RoHS and WEEE directives, contributing to the reduction of hazardous substances and waste products. The CR-150 has earned EPEAT Silver certification, further underlining its environmental responsibility.
