ABSTRACT:
A central server at a home office is connected to remote processing stations at multiple remote sites such as convenience stores. The remote processing station is used to create and print various financial instruments which include money orders, payroll checks, vendor drafts, and gift certificates. The financial instruments are printed on blank paper using MICR toner in a standard laser printer, thereby eliminating the need for preprinted forms. Transaction logs are maintained and communicated to the central server where records for all locations are maintained. The central server also authorized payroll checks for the employees of the remote locations and sends authorization to the locations where the actual payroll checks are printed. Additionally, the system can be used to create and distribute site specific coupons to remote locations. A general coupon template is loaded onto the central server of the data processing system along with site specific information to be printed on each coupon. A particular remote processing station at a remote site can call in to the central server and download the general coupon template and the site specific information for that particular site. The remote processing station then combines the template with the site specific information and prints the site specific coupon.
