Abstract

A document printer, configured as a check printer, in a check dispenser (18) contains a reading device (30), disposed immovably in the delivery-side transport duct (10) of the printer, for registering a consecutive-running control marking imprinted on the reverse of the checks. The reading device makes use of the transport motion of the check, during its passage through the printer and delivery, for scanning purposes.
