A reference catalog of desktop, production, and kiosk cheque scanners — current models and legacy hardware — organized by deployment environment. Each entry covers form factor, throughput, and whether a magnetic MICR read head is present. This hardware works with Chequedb's scanning software — see below for how they connect.
Scanner hardware is the capture layer. Chequedb scanning software is the intelligence layer.
If your search is about check scanning software, start with the software page. This catalog is intentionally about device selection and compatibility. Every scanner in this catalog feeds into Chequedb's cheque scanning software — MICR normalization, OCR field extraction, fraud detection, amount validation, duplicate detection, and a review queue your team can act on. Start with the software to see what each scanner model can do when paired with the right processing layer.
This catalog covers the hardware layer only. For the software layer — OCR field extraction, MICR data normalization, fraud detection, and workflow — see the cheque scanning software, cheque management platform, and scanner SDK remote deposit capture pages.

Any scanner in this catalog can feed into Chequedb's processing layer — MICR normalization, OCR field extraction, fraud detection, amount validation, and a review queue your team can act on. TWAIN, ISIS, and vendor SDK paths all supported.
About this hardware compatibility reference
This catalog focuses on hardware that is compatible with Chequedb's processing software: form factor, throughput, connectivity, and whether a magnetic MICR read head is present. It does not cover scanner vendor software, pricing, or configuration options.
Specifications are drawn from published manufacturer data. Discontinued and legacy entries are included because many installations still run older hardware — knowing a scanner's MICR capability matters regardless of production status.
For the software layer — MICR data normalization, OCR field extraction, fraud detection, and review workflow — see MICR reader and scanner SDK integration.
The hardware on this page is a compatibility reference. The real value is Chequedb's scanning software — the MICR normalization, OCR extraction, fraud detection, amount validation, and review queue that turns raw scan data into managed cheque processing. Start with the software layer first, then pick the scanner that fits your deployment.
