Using Fingerprint Reader and Check Scanner

Below is the step-by-step process for cashing a check using a fingerprint reader and a check scanner.

* Note: The Cash New Check process is also accessible through the customer listing window. Select the customer from the list and click Cash Check in the lower right corner. This process does not ask for the customers fingerprint. It jumps directly to the Step 1 - Verify Customer Information screen (unless there is a customer comment loaded in their profile, then comment will appear in a pop-up window. Simply click OK to proceed). However, the fingerprint reader can be used to search for the customer in the Customer Listing window. To view complete details on searching for a customer using the fingerprint reader, please see Search for Customers.

Be sure the fingerprint reader and check scanner have been activated in the system in the Scanner/Equipment/MoneyGram Setup (Check Scanner and Fingerprint/Webcam sections).
