Patent number: 7494052Abstract: An automated banking machine system and method includes ATMs which accept checks and dispense cash to users. The ATMs are operated to acquire image and magnetic data from deposited checks to determine the genuineness of checks and the authority of a user to receive cash for such checks. Cash may be dispensed to the user from the ATM in exchange for the deposited check. The ATMs dispense cash responsive to communications with a transaction host. The transaction host provides transaction identifying data to the ATM. The ATM sends the transaction identifying data and check images to an image and transaction data server for processing.Type: GrantFiled: March 8, 2006Date of Patent: February 24, 2009Assignee: Diebold Self-Service Systems division of Diebold, IncorporatedInventors: Keith Carpenter, Mike Ryan, Tim Crews, Rahul Pathak, Songtao Ma, Edward L.

Patent number: 7314163Abstract: An automated banking machine system includes ATMs that can accept checks. Cash may be dispensed from an ATM to the user in exchange for a check. Cancellation indicia can be marked on the check by the ATM. The ATM can acquire image data and magnetic data from a received check to determine the genuineness of the check and the authority of the user to cash the check. A check imaging device of the ATM can generate a digital image of a received check. The check image data can be stored in correlated relation with the related transaction data. The ATM can also modify the check image data to produce a modified check image that excludes sensitive check information, such as the user's account number in the micr line. The ATM can then print this modified check image on the user's transaction receipt.Type: GrantFiled: April 16, 2007Date of Patent: January 1, 2008Assignee: Diebold Self-Service Systems division of Diebold, IncorporatedInventors: Tim Crews, Keith Carpenter, Mike Ryan, Laura Drozda, Wayne Warren, Victor Bell, William McCarthy, Matthew Pahl, Martin J.
