Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Object of the Invention] The present invention provides a supply for computers and printers (
This relates to an order form for ink ribbons (supplies).

Takemai ■Aitama Traditionally, the number of computers installed in Japan has increased dramatically with economic growth, and the supply system (
The market for supplies) has also continued to grow steadily.

By the way, there are around 100 types of supply systems worldwide, including aooo types of ink ribbons, 50 types of floppies, 600 types of foam paper, 100 types of files, 50 types of punch cards, and 50 types of magnetic cards.
Floppies, form paper, etc. have standardized standards, but ink ribbons are so different that they cannot even be used for printers from the same manufacturer, and finding the ink ribbon that is compatible with the printer you are using is a matter of a few top sellers. The current situation is that it is difficult to do anything other than products.

When a computer or printer user (TI customer) reaches the end of an ink ribbon's lifespan, he or she must visit a purchasing store, electronics store, or microcomputer shop to purchase an ink ribbon. Product name of the actual item,
In the case of memorizing the standard number (recording it and bringing it with you), even if the product (ink ribbon) can be identified, it is extremely difficult for even an experienced store clerk to find the product in the warehouse, and it is extremely difficult to use it. It is very difficult to confirm the compatible ink ribbon when writing down the product name and standard number of the computer or printer you are using, or it is almost impossible to confirm if you call the store instead of visiting the store.

Furthermore, even if the ink ribbons can be confirmed, each ribbon has its own specifications, making it almost impossible or very time-consuming to confirm the specifications.

1. The present invention aims to accurately and quickly find an ink ribbon suitable for a printer and to provide an order form specifying its specifications.

[Structure of the invention]

In view of this point, the present invention for making the word-of-mouth fortune-telling process is based on an order system consisting of column A, in which the product image and specifications are written, and column B, in which the date, product and quantity, and check sheet columns for specifications are written. The purpose of this paper is to provide a book to resolve the above-mentioned shortcomings.

The present invention attempts to provide the customer with the desired product by confirming the discovery of an ink ribbon that is accurately suited to the printer based on the image of the product and the product name, and specifying its specifications.

One embodiment of the present invention will be described below along with its operation based on the drawings.When the life of the ink ribbon reaches the end of the life of the ink ribbon, a computer or printer user visits a store such as Yaikon Shoseop and uses the computer installed in the store to print the image shown in Figure 3 (1). ) to (5)
Through these steps, the user finds the ink ribbon he or she needs and purchases or reserves it.

(11 Enter the first letter of the printer manufacturer into the computer.

Example: For an IBM (company name) printer, enter rlJ.

(2) The computer displays all printer manufacturers whose initials are rIJ on the screen.

Move the cursor to select the manufacturer (3) Enter the first letter of the printer model into the computer.

Example: For a 5527 printer, enter "5".

(4) The computer displays all printers with the initial letter "5" on the screen.

Move the cursor to select the model.

(5) The computer displays the required ink ribbon image and specifications on the screen (the specifications are input into the computer as necessary).

Enter the order quantity and desired delivery date into the computer.

Incidentally, the screen display is not limited to that shown in FIG. 3 (5), but may be shown in column A of FIG. 1, as long as it displays an image and specifications.

After the customer finds and confirms the ink ribbon through the above steps, the store staff at the Mykoshi Shop etc. either hard copies the screen display to the printer or outputs it to the printer in the order form shown in Figure 1, and if there is no ink ribbon in stock. Fax or LA
The N-configured computer transmits the information to the host computer and places the order.

Now, to explain the order form in Figure 1, 1 is the left Al
This is a purchase order consisting of I3 and 81M3 on the right, A+1j
12 describes the image diagram 5, product number 6, and retail price 7 of the product in the upper part 4, and also describes the specifications 9 and check knob 10 in the lower part 8, and in 81M3, from the upper part 11, there is a document called "order form". The name 12, addressee 13, sending date 14, sending number 15, affiliated store number 16, store name 17, and celebrity 18 are provided.
2. A description and quantity column is provided with the amount 23 surrounded by a frame, and the lower row 24 contains the above /l'! The check sheet HM25 of the specifications corresponding to the specifications 9 of 2 is set up, and the bottom row 26 is the Fax column 2.
There are 7.

The specifications 9 are detailed in the classification table shown in FIG.

In addition, recently consumables such as ink ribbons should be used up, but ink ribbons cost money in cartridge cases, and recycled ribbons are often used (and also in the production of ribbons). By dividing and tabulating the data according to specifications (element analysis from the viewpoint of use) as shown in the classification table in FIG. 2, it becomes possible to manufacture ribbons in large quantities, and the cost of ink ribbons can be reduced.

Next, to explain the classification table in Figure 2, the first row from the top lists the ribbon material classification 28 or the printing method, the second row lists the code number 29, and the vertical and horizontal 4 for each material classification. Each aspect and specification 30 are shown in the 8th to 8th tiers.
and in the third row, the product number 31 that corresponds to each vertical and horizontal specification.
