i can't find any mention on the web of that sentence (even if i replace "be" with "been")...
Actually I don't know anything about this particular scanner.
Mine was just an educated guess, considering that (1) most scanners and copiers refuse to copy cash containing EURion or some other security feature and (2) the scanner was able to scan $1 bills (that don't have the EURion pattern) but not $5 bills (that have it).
