Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To variably set an operating speed and a character size so as to allow various users from a beginner to a skillful user to comfortably operate by registering identification information at a transaction operating speed level on a magnetic card or a magnetic stripe on a bank note. SOLUTION: At a first transaction time, transaction processing time for each operating procedure is stored in a main body storing part to replace with the transaction operating speed level with some reference value to store as identification information in an area on the magnetic card to the magnetic stripe on the bank note. At the time of inserting the magnetic card or the bank note at the time of next transaction, key depressing response, picture switch, medium absorption, medium discharge can be matched with the operating speed level of each transaction by identification information on the magnetic card or the bank note. Concerning the setting of the transaction operating speed level, a user optionally sets a transaction operating speed variable key on a transaction selecting picture 'welcome' on a touch input and guidance display part and then a main control part controls the key depressing response, etc., according to the operating speed.
