Branch counters and back offices live on check throughput, and the imageFORMULA CR-50 is Canon's purpose-built machine for exactly that job. This compact transport captures crisp 600 dpi images of both sides of every check in a single pass, feeding batches continuously so a stack of deposits becomes a clean, ready-to-process digital file in minutes. Built around Canon's document imaging heritage and sized to fit beside a teller terminal, it takes the error-prone chore of manual check entry and turns it into a scan, a validate and a done.

Use Cases
Bank branches run teller deposit capture on it, credit unions and back offices digitize incoming checks for same-day clearing, and businesses with heavy receivables use it at the desk to turn a shoebox of payments into a same-morning electronic deposit batch. It is also the standard replacement unit for banks refreshing aging check transports without changing capture software.

The CR-50 connects over USB to Windows workstations and integrates with Canon capture software as well as the widely deployed teller-capture and remote-deposit platforms used across the banking industry, making it a drop-in unit for established check processing workflows.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Does it capture both sides of each check?
- Yes, front and rear images are captured in a single pass, which is essential for endorsements and back-side details.
- How fast does it process a stack of checks?
- It is built for continuous batch feeding at branch-teller pace, letting a day's deposits scan through in minutes rather than one at a time.
- Will it work with our deposit software?
- It is supported by Canon capture tools and the mainstream check-capture applications banks and credit unions already run.
- Does it need much counter space?
- No, the transport is deliberately compact so it sits beside a teller terminal or on a small back-office desk.
Check processing is one of those workflows where the hardware either disappears into the routine or becomes the daily excuse, and this scanner was engineered for the first outcome. With dual-sided 600 dpi capture, batch feeding and Canon's field-proven imaging quality, the CR-50 keeps money moving from paper to cleared without friction.
