Abstract

This combination payroll check, data and identification sheet is prepared on a computer. One prepunched computer card controls typing on the check and on the data section of the sheet. Attached thereto is an identification section controlled by an identification card prepunched for proper stacking and carrying a photo of the employee, and a replica of his signature. This identification is photocopied on the identification section. When the check is being cashed, the photo can be looked at to identify the employee and the employee countersigns on the identification section, thus making doubly sure that the check is not cashed by an unauthorized person.

Claims

1. Apparatus for applying to each of a plurality of sheets, successively, different but corresponding first and second indicias, comprising a first set of computer data carrying means arranged in a predetermined order, a plurality of sheets, means for applying first indicias to said sheets, means for feeding said sheets, seriatim, to said applying means, means on said first set of computer data carrying means for causing said first indicias applying means to apply first indicias to said sheets, successively, a second set of data carrying means, means to arrange the data carrying means of the second set in an order corresponding to the predetermined order of said first set of computer data carrying means, means to feed the data carrying means of the second set, successively, in an order of the first set, to said sheets, said second set of data carrying means being provided with second indicias, and means for causing said second indicias on the second set, to be applied to said sheets, successively, so that each sheet has both first indicias and second indicias applied thereto, controlled by corresponding pairs of data carrying means of the first and second sets.

2. Apparatus for applying to each of a plurality of sheets, successively, different but corresponding first and second indicias, comprising a first set of stacked computer cards formed with stacking control prepunch means, a plurality of sheets, means for applying first indicia to said sheets, and other prepunch means on said cards capable of controlling said means for applying first indicias to said sheets, means to feed the cards of said first set of stacked computer cards, seriatim to said applying means, means for feeding said sheets seriatim to said applying means, and thereby causing said applying means under control of said other prepunch means, to apply first indicias to said sheets successively, means to move said sheets with first indicias applied to them, beyond said applying Means, a second set of computer cards provided with a prepunch stacking means corresponding to the prepunch stacking means on the first set of cards, means to feed the cards of the second set successively in an order corresponding to the order of feed of the cards of the first set to the applying means, to the sheets which have been moved beyond said applying means, said cards of the second set being provided with transferable second indicias, and means for transfering the second indicias on the cards of the second set to said sheets, successively, so that each sheet has first indicias and second indicias applied thereto, controlled by corresponding pairs of cards of the first and second sets of computer cards.

3. Apparatus for applying to each of a plurality of sheets, successively, different but corresponding first and second indicias, comprising a first set of stacked computer cards formed with stacking control prepunch means, a plurality of sheets, means for applying first indicias to said sheets, and other prepunch means on said cards capable of controlling said means for applying first indicias to said sheets, means to feed the cards of said first set of stacked computer cards, seriatim to said applying means, means for feeding said sheets seriatim to said applying means, and thereby causing said applying means under control of said other prepunch means to apply first indicias to said sheets successively, a second set of computer cards provided with a prepunched stacking means corresponding to the prepunch stacking means on the first set of cards, means to feed the cards of the second set successively in an order corresponding to the order of feed of the cards of the first set to the applying means, to the sheets, said cards of the second set being provided with transferable second indicias, and means for transfering the second indicias on the cards of the second set, to said sheets, successively, so that each sheet has first indicias and second indicias applied thereto, controlled by corresponding pairs of cards of the first and second sets of computer cards.

4. Apparatus for applying to each of a plurality of sheets, successively, different but corresponding first and second indicias, comprising a first set of stacked computer cards formed with stacking control prepunch means, a plurality of sheets, means for applying first indicias to said sheets, and other prepunch means on said cards, means for feeding said sheets, seriatim, to said applying means, means under control of said other prepunch means of said first set of stacked cards, for causing said applying means to apply first indicias to said sheets, successively, a second set of computer cards provided with prepunch stacking means corresponding to the prepunched stacking means on the first set of cards, means to feed the cards of the second set, successively, in an order corresponding to the order of stacking of the cards of the first set, to said sheets, said cards of the second set being provided with transferable second indicias, and means for transferring said second indicias on the cards of the second set, to said sheets, successively, so that each sheet has first indicias and second indicias applied thereto, controlled by corresponding pairs of cards of the first and second sets of computer cards.
