<p>A document processing device (100) having an evaluation region (104) disposed along a transport path between an input (102) and output receptacle (108) capable of processing both currency bills and barcoded media. The evaluation region includes detectors (110) for detecting predetermined characteristics of currency bills and a barcode reader (112) for scanning the barcoded media. A controller (114) coupled to the evaluation region controls the operation of the document processing device and receives input from and provides information to a user via a control unit (216). In some embodiments, the document processing device may have any number of output receptacles (708a and 708b), and the control unit allows the user to specify which output receptacle receives which type of document. In some embodiments, an optional coin sorter (1048) may be coupled to the document processing device to allow document and coin processing. The document processing device may be coupled to a network (1192) to communicate information to devices (1100a-1100n) linked to the network.</p> |
