The advertiser terminal 200 can connect to the server 100 by wired / wireless connection, perform member authentication for the advertiser, and apply for an advertisement service. Here, the advertisement information registration unit 110 also receives information about the advertisement target to which the advertisement information is to be provided from the advertiser terminal 200. An ad target is information about the area where the advertisement will be provided, sex, age, education, occupation, school, group, company, individual,

In addition, the advertisement method and advertisement amount can be set in the process of requesting advertisement. The advertisement method is an option that allows the user to select the option of printing the desired print method when the advertisement is output to the printout. The printing method includes a drag method, a line output method, a post output method, and a method of directly setting an advertisement output position on a printed matter.
