System and Method For Image Depositing, Image Presentment and Deposit Taking in a Commercial Environment
First Claim
1. A method for image based transactions, comprising:
- scanning, using a check imaging station computer, an original paper check having at least one of handwritten and machine written text and encoded with magnetic indicia received for deposit at a first location;
creating, using the check imaging station computer, an electronic image file of the scanned original paper check consisting at least in part of an electronic representation of the at least one of handwritten and machine written text and the magnetic indicia encoding;
transmitting, using the check imaging station computer, the electronic image file of the scanned original paper check from the first location to a check image server computer at a second location; and
recreating, using the check image server computer, a paper facsimile image of the scanned original paper check with the at least one of handwritten and machine written text and encoded with the magnetic indicia encoding from the electronic image file of the scanned original paper check for processing a transaction with the paper facsimile image in place of the scanned original paper check.

Abstract
A method and system provides for scanning a check and/or cash to create an electronic image of the front and the back of the check and/or cash. The image is then processed and transmitted electronically to a central location. The image may be recreated into a paper form at the central location, resembling the original paper check or cash, including a machine-readable regeneration of the MICR code line data captured from the original instrument. Paperless processing of checks and cash is thus provided, including local voiding and storage of the check without requiring immediate pickup, while still allowing the transaction to be process.

18. A machine for image based transactions, comprising:
-
a check imaging station computer having a processor programmed for; scanning, an original paper check having at least one of handwritten and machine written text and encoded with magnetic indicia received for deposit at a first location; creating an electronic image file of the scanned original paper check consisting at least in part of an electronic representation of the at least one of handwritten and machine written text and the magnetic indicia encoding; transmitting the electronic image file of the scanned original paper check from the first location to a check image server computer at a second location; and the check image server computer having a processor programmed for; recreating a paper facsimile image of the scanned original paper check with the at least one of handwritten and machine written text and encoded with the magnetic indicia encoding from the electronic image file of the scanned original paper check for processing a transaction with the paper facsimile image in place of the scanned original paper check.
