(Function) When the document issuing device of the present invention is used by multiple operators, after each operator's collection information is processed,
When the operator inserts the operator information storage medium into the holding means of the document issuing device, the contents of the operator's operation are read from the information on the medium. Then, according to the content, printing is performed by the printing means on the paper taken out from the cassette, and a document is issued from the document outputting means. The removal of the document by the operator is detected by the removal detection means. This detection activates the holding means and returns the operator information storage medium. Therefore, it is possible to prevent other operators from taking out the certificate by mistake.

(Embodiment) FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of a document issuing device of the present invention.

The illustrated device comprises a holding means 1, a certificate display means 2, a removal detection means 3, a display means 4, and a control means 5.

The holding means 1 holds an operator information storage medium storing information about the operator from the start to the end of the document issuance process. The drive control section 51 operates the holding means 1 when the operator inserts the operator information storage medium into the holding means l in order to take out the document. When the operator takes out the document, the driving means 51 moves the holding means 1 to hold the medium.
is operated in the opposite direction to the above. As a result, the holding means 1
An operator information storage medium is handed out from the user.

The document output means 2 presents the document. That is, the paper is sent from the cassette 6 via the transport path 21. This paper is printed by the print head 22 located in the middle of the conveyance path 21, and a document is created.

The retrieval detection means 3 detects whether or not the document is taken out by the operator. That is, the retrieval detection means 3 detects whether there is a document in the document output means 2.

The display means 4 is a CRT (cathode ray tube)
etc., and displays information about the operator. This information is, for example, an operator code.

The control means 5 includes a drive control section 51, an information determination section 52,
Signal conversion section 53, display control section 54°, and conveyance control section 5
5 and a print control section 56.

The main role of the control means 5 is to release the holding means 1 and hand out the operator information storage medium when the removal detection means 3 detects the removal of the document.

The drive control section 51 drives and controls the holding means 1 as described above.

The information determination unit 52 determines the information on the operator information storage medium read by the reading unit 11.

The signal converter 53 converts the output signal of the extraction detection means 3 into a digital signal.
