Which one should I choose?

Before you decide on a check scanner, take a moment to ask yourself the following questions:

How many checks a day will I need to scan?
If your business takes in less than 50 checks per day, a single-feed machine such as our own DepositNow scanner will probably be adequate. For higher numbers of checks, we recommend the hopper-fed Panini Vision X.

Do I need my checks to be physically marked or endorsed?
Some businesses prefer a scanner that will automatically print their name or other information on the back of a check as it's deposited. If you require this capability, we recommend the CheXpress CX30 by Digital Check for low numbers of checks and the Digital Check TS30 or Panini Vision X if you need to scan more than 50 checks a day.

Will I use the scanner to read other things besides just checks?
If you plan on also using your check scanner for photos, documents and other media, the DepositNow scanner is the only one that functions as an ordinary full-color scanner with most popular imaging programs for the PC.

Do I need to use the scanner in a network environment?
In certain specific situations, you may want to connect your scanner to your office network via an Ethernet cable. If so, the MagTek Excella is recommended for its built-in network compatibility.
