Abstract

Abstract A passbook printing machine which executes a transaction by user manipulation with the use of a passbook, and the passbook is returned to the user after transaction data is printed therein. The machine comprises a printer for printing the transaction data in the passbook and a controller which selects either a brief printing mode or an ordinary printing mode. In the brief printing mode, only the latest transaction data is printed in the passbook, and in the ordinary printing mode, not-printed former transaction data is print-out in addition as the latest transaction data. The controller selectively executes one of the printing modes in response to a user's command.
