AUTOMATIC DATA PICKUP THROUGH THE E 1 4 0 0 CONSOLE The operator simply places the magnetic striped ledger between the self-squaring form guides. As the Auto- matic Form Alignment feature moves the form to the next posting I~ne, the stored data is automatically and electronically read, checked and transferred to the sys- tem's core memory.

When she lists the ver~ficat~on number and transaction

data, she activates the processing run. Correct account selection is verified electronically. The ledger is updated, and automatically ejected as the new account data is stored in the stripe. It's that simple.

THE RESULTS . . . Speed-Account Data pickup is faster because it's done electron~cally. Accuracy-What the E 1400 does automatically, the operator cannot do wrong. Productiv~ty-More work In less time with less effort.

PLUS m AUTOMATED FORMS HANDLING

Just drop the forms between the self-squarlng form guides. . .

With the Burroughs E 1400 all your operator has to do IS drop the forms in the self-squaring farm guides Automatically and independently the forms are moved to the next posting line. When the posting n done, they're ejected for easy operator removal.

Alignment is accomplished through the sensrng of fine- line perforations In each form. These perforations do not impede prtntour readab~lity or reduce available prlnt area. Many forms sizes and types may be used.
