Claim Text:
1. A system for handling valuable documents comprising: a validator for validating authenticity of valuable documents, a printer for recording information on a card, an interface for intercommunicating the validator and printer, and a gaming machine connected to the validator and printer, wherein the validator comprises a validation control device for processing validation information of the valuable documents, a memory device connected to the validation control device that writes or stores the validation information in the memory device and searches the validation information in the memory device, and a validator transceiver connected to the validation control device for mutual communication, the printer comprises a printing control device, a transporter connected to the printing control device for transporting the card along a pathway, a printing device connected to the printing control device for recording information on the card, a printer transceiver connected to the printing control device for mutual communication, and a card information reader device or reader for detecting a retrieval instruction signal recorded on the card and forwarding the retrieval instruction signal to the printing control device that then transmits the retrieval instruction signal to the validation control device through the printer transceiver, interface and validator transceiver, the validation control device receives the retrieval instruction signal from the printing control device, searches the validation information stored in the memory device and forwards the retrieved validation information to the printing control device through the validator transceiver, interface and printer transceiver, the printing control device operates the printing device to record on the card the validation information received from the validation control device, and when the card does not contain the retrieval instruction signal, the printing control device picks out an identification number that is detected from the card by the card information reader device or reader, and sends the identification number to make the gaming machine operational, whereby the card with the retrieval instruction can be used to obtain the validation information, the card without the retrieval instruction can be used to make the gaming machine operational, and the gaming machine can be used for gaming when it is operational and has received validated authentic valuable documents.
