You have to submit the original. You can retain the photocopy.

Or else prepare two sets of original Power of Attorneys and give one original to Bank and retain one original with you, if you need.

Generally the Banks get their own drafted POA.

The Banks obtain original if the POA is special drafted for Bank.

Bank should not receive General Power of attorney.
