Does your scanner prevent scanning money ?

So, basically you're limited to strip clubs.

Hmmm, I just had an idea...

Indeed.

Didn't have a $20 bill, but only scans half of a $10 bill. D:

WHen my high school art room got it's first scanner, the first thing that happened was some kid scanned a $10 and printed it

nobody knows how, but the FBI caught wind of it and showed up at the school. The kid got off with a slap on the wrist because he never spent his "copy", and they gave everyone a stern talking to.

From that point on the art teachers always gave each class a lecture on things they are not allowed to scan.

I just downloaded them, I've been wanting to see how the Secret Service has been doing.

I have a good friend in the printing business. Does everything from screen printing to offset printing and he said the latest bills are not impossible just not worth it. That by the time you got all the tech together to do it you would spend more than printing it would be worth. He said the color changing inks alone are several thousand dollars per pint and the machine to apply them is upwards of $1 million, and that would be just for a tiny part of each bill. Add in the cost to print the other parts and it just isn't worth it.

Does it cost the government that much to print them too? Or is it cheaper for them somehow?

Mine scans any currency just fine, it's an old umax running off the parallel port but one would be loony to try to counterfeit like this, FBI will come down on you big time..

Indeed.
