Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a method for printing forms, and in particular, when printing out multiple forms in succession in a financial terminal system, etc. The present invention relates to a form printing method suitable for preventing data from being printed.

[Conventional technology]

The conventional technology will be explained using a financial terminal system as an example. In a financial terminal system, when data is continuously printed on multiple passbooks, it is necessary to prevent data from being printed on the wrong passbook. Therefore, in the conventional technology, for example,
As disclosed in Publication No. 16958, each time the page of the passbook is changed, the passbook identification data recorded on the magnetic stripe on the passbook is compared with the passbook identification data at the time the passbook was set, and when they match, the data is printed. An invention for outputting information has been proposed. This is to prevent an operator from accidentally inserting the next passbook into the printing mechanism when changing pages of the passbook, detecting this and printing data on the incorrect passbook.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

In the above-mentioned conventional technology, when data is printed continuously on a plurality of bankbooks, no consideration is given to checking for incorrect insertion of bankbooks, except when changing pages of bankbooks. Therefore, although it is possible to check for erroneous insertions when changing the page of a bankbook, there is a problem in that it is not possible to check for erroneous insertions when a higher-level station prints out a particular bankbook among multiple bankbooks.

The present invention was developed in view of the problems of the prior art described above. When printing data on multiple sheets of documents such as passbooks and slips in succession, the present invention is not only performed when changing pages, but also when printing data on multiple sheets from a higher-level station. It is an object of the present invention to provide a form printing method capable of checking for erroneous insertion of forms when outputting print data on forms all at once.

[Means for solving problems]

The form printing method of the present invention is applied to a terminal system that has a function of continuously printing print data for each form transmitted from a higher-level station onto a plurality of forms, and is particularly applicable to The form identification data read from the storage means provided in the storage device is sent to the upper station in advance, and before the printing of each form starts, the upper station sends the form identification data and print data corresponding to the plurality of forms to be printed. send the
The form identification data stored in the memory of the terminal device and read from the storage means provided on the form inserted into the printing mechanism of the terminal device is compared with the form identification data stored in the memory, and the form identification data is found to match. In this case, the matched form identification data in the memory is cleared, and the print data stored in the corresponding memory is printed on the form inserted into the printing mechanism.

[Effect]

According to the present invention, the form identification data of the form is read at the time of transaction input, and is transmitted to the higher-level station when the transaction input is completed. Then, before starting printing each form,
The form identification data of the form to be printed is transmitted from the upper station and compared with the form identification data of the form set in the printing mechanism. Then, printing is performed only when the two match.

Therefore, it is possible to check the consistency between the form to be printed out from the upper station and the form set by the operator in the printing mechanism of the terminal device, so even when printing on multiple forms in succession, the form to be printed can be checked. This will prevent accidents caused by mistakes.

[Example] Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to Examples shown in the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an example of a bank terminal device that executes the form checking method of the present invention. In FIG. 1, an operator uses a manual stripe reader 7 to read bankbook identification data recorded on the magnetic stripe of each bankbook. The read bankbook identification data of each bankbook is transferred to the host device 3 via the CPU 1.
In addition, in Fig. 1, 2 is a memory, 4 is an operation panel,
5 indicates a display device.

When sending print data for multiple passbooks from the upper station 3 or when changing the pages of the passbooks, first, the passbook identification data for the multiple passbooks is sent from the upper station 3 to the CPU 1 of the terminal device, and the Identification data is stored in memory 2. next,
Print data for multiple passbooks is sent from the upper station 3, received by the CPU 1 of the terminal device, and stored in the memory 2.
When the data is stored in , the processing according to the flowchart shown in FIG. 2 is executed. That is, it is determined whether or not passbook identification data has been received from the upper station 3. If it is determined that the passbook has been received, the passbook identification data is read from the magnetic stripe of the passbook set in the printing mechanism 6, and then compared with the passbook identification data stored in the memory 2 from the upper station 3. Ru. As a result of the comparison, if the two match, the CPU 1 clears the passbook identification data from the upper station 3 stored in the memory 2, and then reads out the print data corresponding to the passbook identification data from the memory 2, It is output to the printing mechanism 6 and printed on the passbook. As a result of the comparison, if the two do not match, it is determined that there is an error in the bankbook set in the printing mechanism 6, and the set bankbook is rejected. Specifically, the passbook is ejected from the printing mechanism 6, and a re-operation instruction is displayed on the display device 5.

In the above embodiment, the case where data is printed on multiple passbooks at once was explained as an example.
The present invention is not limited to this, but can also be applied, for example, to cases where data is printed all at once on a plurality of documents such as slips.

〔Effect of the invention〕

According to the present invention, it is possible to prevent an operator from making a mistake in selecting a form when printing out a plurality of forms from a higher-level station. Therefore, when handling a plurality of forms in one transaction, it is possible to prevent an accident in which, when printing from a higher-level station, a form that is not targeted for printing is mistakenly printed and the form is soiled. It also has the effect of being able to guide the operator in cases where he or she forgets to set the form.
