Abstract

When the dollar amount of the transaction is first keyed into a machine, a number intended to indicate the dollar amount is printed onto the document both in an optically readable non-magnetic code and in ordinary numerals. By optically reading the non-magnetic code from the document a set of electronic signals is created which represents the number indicative of the dollar amount, and in direct response to that set of electronic signals the number is then printed onto the document in magnetic ink.
