Please note that our stock laser checks
have recently been updated to comply with
the
Check 21 Act, which officially
took effect on October 28, 2004. As a
result of the Check 21 Act, checks will be
required to be scannable - or
“Image-Friendly” - as they will be subject
to possible electronic transmission by
banks and other financial institutions. |
|

“Image Friendly” (also referred to as
“Image Compliant”) means that a check or
other document can be scanned easily so
that the pertinent information (check
amount, payee name, routing info, etc) can
be clearly read. If extraneous printing
or other marks (background printing,
company logos, void pantographs, etc) show
up when the document is scanned, the
ability of the mechanical reader to “see”
the critical information is impaired. For
a check to be considered “Image Friendly”,
everything but the pertinent information
should “drop out” when the document is
scanned. |

On the right side of our check stock, you
may notice a rectangular area that is
slightly lighter than the rest of the
check. This is because the Copy Void
feature has been removed from this region
of the check as part of the Image Friendly
upgrade, in order to help insure that your
checks are not rejected by the banks for
failing to
comply with the new Check 21
Standards. |

We want you to feel confident that this
and any other changes made to our checks
have been made with your security in mind,
and that you have effectively been placed
ahead of the curve by using
state-of-the-art check stock that adheres
to the very latest standards for both
security and machine readability. |
