Cash letter print verification
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for verifying printing of an electronic image cash letter (“
- ICL”
), comprising the steps of;
storing information regarding multiple ICLs to be printed in a first record;
reading information in each of a plurality of printed machine-readable identifiers, each printed machine-readable identifier being associated with one of the ICLs;
storing the read information in a second record; and
identifying any of the ICLs that have not been printed by comparing the information in the first record with the information in the second record.

Abstract
A printed cash letter includes a machine-readable identifier, such as a barcode, identifying the cash letter. Upon printing, information from the identifier is read and stored in a first record. To determine whether the cash letter is a duplicate, a check presentment module compares information from the identifier with information in the first record. If information identifying the cash letter already exists in the first record, the cash letter is a duplicate. To verify cash letter printing, information identifying multiple cash letters to be printed is stored in a second record. Upon printing a portion of the cash letters, information read from identifiers on the printed cash letters is compared with information in the second record. If the second record includes information regarding a cash letter not identified in the information scanned from the barcodes, then the check presentment module identifies the cash letter as having not been printed.

11. A computer-implemented method for verifying printing of an electronic image cash letter (“
- ICL”
), comprising the steps of;storing, in a first record, information uniquely identifying each of multiple ICLs to be printed, the information stored for each ICL comprising at least one of a total value of items in the ICL, an ABA number of a bank that will receive a printed copy of the ICL, a total number of item bundles in the ICL, and a total number of items in the ICL; reading information in each of a plurality of printed machine-readable identifiers, each printed machine-readable identifier being disposed on a printed one of the ICLs; storing the read information in a second record; determining whether any of the ICLs have not been printed by comparing the information in the first record with the information in the second record; and in response to determining that at least one of the ICLs has not been printed, outputting an alert advising an operator that the at least one of the ICLs has not been printed. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
