On Balance, The Best Choice
Among Check Readers
Checks still account for the largest number and total
dollar volume of noncash-based transactions in the United States. Though bad checks cost retailers almost
$5 billion a year, industry analysts predict that the number
of check transactions will continue to increase.
The VeriFone® CR 600 Check Reader can protect your
business from significant losses due to bad checks, while
providing convenience for your check-paying customers. |

The First Of Its Kind
The VeriFone CR 600 is the first check reader that combines
full programmability, remote downloading, self -diagnostics and universal connectivity in one unit. This leads to improved
productivity and reduces check fraud at the point of sale. In addition, remote upgrades cut back on technical support
and downtime.
Designed For The Retail Environment
The fast check-reading capability of the CR 600 makes a check-based payment as convenient as a credit card sale.
Its horseshoe design allows the CR 600 to capture MICR data at high read rates. It can even read folded or crumpled checks.
Plus, it's more reliable and accurate than readers with a straight-line transport-increasing customer throughput
and user satisfaction.
The horseshoe shape saves countertop space. And it's available
with a special base that integrates with VeriFone terminals.
Easy To Configure To Your Needs
The formats for data output to the host are fully user-definable
and can be tailored to fit the requirements of whichever check
verification or guarantee services you use-now and in the future.
What's more, the CR 600 can be configured through
remote downloads-when connected to high-function
Veril'one terminals or ECRs. Or locally-through specially formatted checks.
Self-Diagnostics Cut Back On Service Costs
When the CR 600 is powered, it automatically runs a diagnostic program. If it detects a problem, a specific
explanation code appears on its display, allowing you to convey the exact nature of the problem to the help desk.
With the reduced need for hands-on
servicing-maintaining an installed base of CR 600 units requires a fraction of the
resources compared to other competitive products.
A Choice Of Configurations
The CR 600 comes standard with an RS-232 port for communication through your
TRANZ® OMNI® or Everest™ terminals. As an option, it supports both RS-232 and RS-485 protocols,
integrating with the major ECR/POS systems.
And it's available with a keyboard wedge for use when
direct connection to an ECR/POS system is not feasible.
Easy To Learn And Use
The operation of the CR 600 is so straightforward that learning to use it takes only a few minutes, an important
advantage given the high turnover rate in retail staffing.
Track To The Future
As the magnetic-stripe driver's license proliferates, merchants
will become increasingly interested in a triple-track, high-coercivity reader. These readers enhance the speed and
accuracy of entering driver's license information for processing
check transactions.
The CR 600 has an expansion port to support a
VeriFone triple-track reader. So it protects your investment today by
ensuring a growth path for tomorrow.
