ABSTRACT:
A document imprinting device for imprinting on documents such as checks comprises a frame, a document feeding mechanism mounted on the frame for sequentially feeding documents, a conveying mechanism for conveying a document from the document feeding mechanism along a document conveyance path, an imprinting mechanism for imprinting the documents conveyed along the document conveyance path, and a sensing mechanism positioned along the document conveyance path for sensing the position of the documents and for triggering the imprinting mechanism such that the document is imprinted at a desired location on the document. A method of imprinting a document such as a check comprises the steps of feeding the documents sequentially into a document conveyance path so that a space is created between each sequentially fed document, conveying the documents along the document conveyance path, sensing the position of the documents and triggering the rotation of a printing drum to imprint each document as each document is conveyed past the printing drum.
