Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described in detail a method for saving the resin of the electronic cash register according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

2 is a block diagram of a key input unit of an electronic cash register to which a method for saving a resin of the present invention can be applied. As shown in FIG. 2, the key configuration of the key input unit 20 of the general ECR includes a mode switch 21 used to designate a desired operation mode among various operation modes of the ECR, a price of various items, a corresponding numeric code, and the like. Numeric key 23 used to input the item, item key 25 used to designate the desired item, function key 27 used to execute a desired function among various functions provided in the ECR, and a character key to input characters It consists of 29.

In addition, a receipt selection key 27a for selecting whether or not to print a receipt in order to save a resin in the function key 27 is not defined.

In the above-described configuration, the operation modes of the ECR include a program mode, which is a mode used for inputting or changing program contents (for example, options not printed on a resin sheet) used in the ECR. And a registration mode for registering and processing various transaction information generated at the point of sale, an inspection mode for checking transaction information stored in the RAM 60, a settlement mode for canceling the transaction information, and a stop mode. have.

3 is an exemplary diagram of options programmed for implementing the resin saving method of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 3, (a) is designation to be referred to when the receipt selection key 27a is not input. In other words, if the receipt selection key 27a is not entered before the product is sold and registered, if the registered amount is negative (-), the sales amount is 100 won. If it does not exceed, it will not be printed on the receipt, and if the cash is closed, it will not be printed. These contents can be set in the program mode. In the case of (b), if '1' is selected from the receipt selection key (27a) and the numeric key (23) before registration, then the registered content is compared with the content of (b) to select printing. In this case, the customer receipt is not issued, and therefore, a receipt delivered to the customer at the time of sale is not issued. In the case of (c), when the receipt selection key 27a and the numeric key 23 '2' are input before registration, the contents can be used when the date and the receipt number are not printed on the receipt. In addition to this, more cases can be set and used with the numeric keys 23 and the like. Of course, the options described above should be recorded in the user manual, etc., and can be programmed differently according to the user's choice.

4 is a flowchart illustrating a method for saving a resin of the electronic cash register of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 4, first, the mode check determines whether the mode is registered in step S10. If not, the mode is checked in step S13. If not, the function of the mode is checked in step S17. If the program mode, the program is not printed on the resin in step (S15). That is, the options described in FIG. 3 are input. If the registration mode in step S10, the sales code is set to zero in step S20. Here, the sales code is set to determine whether the process of registering with the ECR when the goods are sold. In other words, the sales code of 0 means that the new registration process will be started, and the sales code of 1 means that the registration process for the merchandise is not finished. If it is to start anew by determining whether to start a new or existing registration in step S30 after setting the sales code to 0 to inform that it is a new start in step S20 in step S40 It is determined whether the receipt selection key 27a and the numeric key 23 are input. If the receipt selection key 27a and the numeric key 23 are not input in step S40, the designated content is referred to. Therefore, the selection flag is set to 0 in step S50, and if so, the selection flag is set in step S55. The number corresponding to the input numeric key 23 is set. Then, after the sales registration process for the sales article inputted to the ECR in step S60, the selection flag is checked to print the registered contents in step S70. If the selection flag is 0 in step S80, the content specified in the program mode is taken in step S90, and compared with the registered content, so that printing processing is not performed. If the selection flag is not 0 in step S80, the content set in the program mode corresponding to the number of the selection flag is taken in step S95 and compared with the registered content so as not to print on the content.

In the next step (S100), it is determined whether the sale registration process is finished, and if it is not finished, the sale code is set to 1 and the step (S30) or less is repeated.

The method of saving the resin of the electronic cash register of the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications can be made within the range permitted by the technical idea of the present invention.
