[QUOTE="Troodon, post: 808881, member: 4626"]Seems to be that HPs don't have this anti-scanning feature (I have an HP Officejet 5610xi All-in-One, about 2 years old, and have had no problem scanning banknotes, even modern ones with the Eurion or other anti-counterfeiting features). It is worth noting that there is nothing inherently illegal in just scanning banknotes. It is illegal to produce counterfeit currency of course, for which scanning may be the first step; but if you stop at scanning you've done nothing illegal (posting scanned pictures of banknotes isn't illegal either). Laws vary from country to country, but as I understand US law it isn't illegal to print a picture/photocopy of US currency, so long as it's either reduced (65% or less) or enlarged (151% or more) and thus the copy can't possibly be confused as legitimate US currency.[/QUOTE]
