Photograph 102 and recording medium 1
04 is set in the printing apparatus 105, and the recording medium 106 with a photograph is created.

However, when the recording medium with such a photograph is produced, the customer must obtain the photograph in advance, which is troublesome and troublesome. For this reason, as shown in FIG. 11, a photographing device 111 for photographing a customer and a printing device 112 are provided, and a photo recording medium 114 is created on the spot according to an instruction from a staff member 113.

However, in this case, a photograph which is not satisfactory to the customer may be printed, and there is a problem that a recording medium with a photograph according to the customer's request cannot be easily prepared.

[0005]

Therefore, according to the present invention, when issuing a medium on which print information such as a photograph is printed, the customer confirms or selects the print information before printing, and the customer acknowledges the print information. An object of the present invention is to provide a medium issuing device and a transaction processing device for printing from.

[0006]

According to the first aspect of the present invention,
A medium issuing device for issuing a medium in which print information is recorded, characterized by comprising print information fetching means for permitting fetching of print information for printing on the medium from the outside.

A second aspect of the present invention is a transaction processing apparatus including the medium issuing apparatus according to the first aspect, including an image capturing device that captures print information for printing on a transaction medium as an image. Is characterized by.

The invention according to claim 3 is a transaction processing device comprising print information reading means for reading print information for printing on a transaction medium from recorded information on a recording medium.

[0009]

According to the present invention, when issuing the medium on which the print information is printed, the print information fetching means fetches the print information for printing on the medium from the outside and prints it to issue the medium.

When the print information is captured, the print information is captured as an image through the image capturing device, and the captured image is printed on a medium to form a transaction medium.

Similarly, when the print information is taken in, the print information reading means reads the print information for printing on the transaction medium from the record information on the recording medium and prints this on the medium to form the transaction medium.

[0012]

As a result, when a face photograph or the like is printed on a medium such as a card or a passbook, print information can be easily fetched from the outside and printed, so that the print information can be easily recorded and the medium is issued. You can

Further, when the print information is captured by the image, the image is displayed and the customer confirms the image before printing or allows the customer to select one of a plurality of images and print after the customer approves. Therefore, it is possible to record the print information according to the customer's request.

Therefore, it can be used as a device having a high serviceability to satisfy customers, and when it is incorporated in a transaction processing device such as an ATM, the customer himself / herself operates it to record print information such as a facial photograph on a medium. Since it can be issued and issued, a medium containing print information can be issued efficiently in a short time, and since no staff work is required, labor can be saved and it is also suitable for unmanned operation.
