Check Protecters are Awesome!

June 28, 2016 By Paul

Like typewriters, check protectors are single purpose machines. A check protector embosses the paper check with the dollar amount  and indelible ink then perforates the paper making fraud difficult. This is an older model that uses an ink roller to apply the ink. Modern machines use a wide ribbon.
