UniSoft Imaging
USEasy Check Scanner Application Program Interface

UniSoft Imaging developed an easy to use, general check scanner interface to most of the popular check scanners. Using only ten function calls and less than forty parameters, one can now control scanning, ejecting, endorsing or printing, pocket selection, and many other scanner features. Some additional features can be support using ini files.

Significant Advantages include:

• Easiest General Check Scanner Interface Available for C, C++, VB.Net, or C# Programmers. Much easier to integrate than APIs available from Panini, Canon, or Digital Check Corp.
• Supports most common production check scanners. But UniSoft Imaging is always willing to support new models depending on customer needs.
• E13B and CMC7 MICR OCR available on all supported scanners.
• Best API technical Support available in the industry. Onsite support and training is available.
• Better images with improved edge detection thresholding algorithms.
• Lowest cost generic Check Scanners API in the industry.
• Exception and Error handling is simpified making it a much easy API to use.

Support Check Scanners include:

Panini	Canon	Digital Check Corp.
MyVision	CR-25	TS215
Vision X	CR-55	TS230
Vision 1	CR-120	TS240
Vision neXt	CR-150	TS500
I:Deal	CR-190	CX30

UniSoft Imaging is interested in supporting other scanners in the future and is willing to work with developers to support new scanners and features as needed. UniSoft Imaging wants to improve the technical support in the industry and is willing to discuss site visits and testing assistance to make long term support easier for customers.

The UniSoft Imaging USEasy Scan API is built on top of the check scanner APIs provided by the check scanner manufacturers so customers might need to set up support to get some updated low level APIs at times from the manufacturers.

Documentation and Demonstration code for C and C# is available and 10 hours of technical support comes with the standard year maintenance package. Additional hours of technical support are available for $100 per hour plus reasonable expenses if necessary. An optional socket interface is available for some programming environments.
