Abstract

L'invention a pour objet de réduire le temps nécessaire à un processus d'examen dans un dispositif de traitement de feuilles de papier. Un guichet automatique de banque (ATM) (10) contient des billets de banque (S) stockés par dénomination dans des cassettes à dénomination (140). Lors de l'affichage de l'état de stockage courant des billets de banque (S) de chaque cassette à dénomination (140), la forme de l'affichage de l'état de stockage des feuilles de papier est amené à varier entre des cassettes à dénomination (140) au niveau desquelles un événement anormal induisant un obstacle à l'identification du nombre de billets de banques (S) stockés, ne s'est pas produit, et des cassettes à dénomination (140) au niveau desquelles un tel événement anormal s'est produit.
