A printer includes a processor configured to be communicatively coupled to an external device and a POS terminal on which a web browser operates, and enabling control of the external device by a control object with respect to the POS terminal based on relationship information, in which the processor enables the control of the external device by the control object with respect to a first POS terminal based on first relationship information, deletes the first relationship information while the control object is not deleted when the control of the external device by the first POS terminal ends, generates second relationship information indicating a relationship between a second POS terminal and the control object when a request for the external device from the second POS terminal is received after deleting the first relationship information, and enables the control of the external device from the second POS terminal by the control object.

Printer, control method of printer, and printing system

A recording device in a transaction processing system extracts extraction information that is used in a process executed by a control server to provide a service from transaction information based on a transaction process, and outputs a code containing a URL of the control server to which extraction information and identification information are added. When accessed by a terminal reading the code, the control server acquires and stores the extraction information and uniform identification information added to the URL, and uses the stored extraction information to execute a process providing a service.

Transaction system, processing device, and control device

[Problem] To enable easily using transaction information printed on receipts through an external device. [Solution] A control serverthat can communicate with a printerthat produces receipts printed with transaction information related to a transaction, has a plurality of APIs registered thereon, and has: a control server storage unitthat stores a transaction information manager database; and a control server control unitthat receives transaction information from the printer, stores the received transaction information in the transaction information manager database, and when response request information requesting a response and including API call information specifying an API is received from a management device, executes a process through the API specified by the API call information based on the transaction information stored in the transaction information manager database, and sends information indicating the process result to the management device

Information processing device, information processing system, and control method of an information processing device

A print control systemhas a control serverthat transmits print data, and a printerthat communicates with the control serverthrough an asynchronous duplex communication path, receives print data sent by the control serverthrough the communication path, and prints based on the received data.

Print control system and print control method

A POS terminalin a transaction systemtransmits control data instructing executing a transaction-related process during a transaction; a recording devicereceives the control data, executes a process based on the control data, transmits transaction information based on the control data and transaction identification information identifying the transaction information, and outputs a 2D code representing the transaction identification information; a terminalreads the transaction identification information from the 2D code output by the recording device, and transmits the transaction identification information that was read and a customer ID, which is identification information to store; and a control serverreceives the transaction information and transaction identification information from the recording device, receives the transaction identification information and customer ID from the terminal, and relationally stores the transaction information and customer ID when both of the received transaction identification information match.

Transaction system, information processing method, and processing device

A print control system includes one or more first printers each having a print unit that can print on print media, a second printer that communicates with the first printers via a first network and has a print unit that can print on print media, and a print control server that connects to the second printer through a second network. The control print server sends, to the second printer, configuration control data containing attribute information that can be used to identify one of the first printers. The second printer forwards the configuration control data to the identified first printer and the identified first printer executes a configuration process in response to the configuration control data.

Method and system for configuring network printers

A connection server includes a connector that connects to a printing device, sends print data to the printing device, and receives first and second data from the printing device, the first and second data being different; a print data processor that generates the print data based on print information data sent by a management server; a first transceiver that sends the first data to the management server and receives the print information data sent by the management server; and a second transceiver that sends the second data to a management device. In another embodiment, a printing device includes a communication controller that sends the first data to the management server through a connection server and sends the second data to the management server through the connection server.

Print control system

A print control systemincludes a printerthat prints based on print data; a connection serverthat connects to the printer, generates print data based on print information data, and sends the print data to the printer; a management serverthat connects to the connection serverand sends print information data to the connection server; and a management devicethat connects to the management server, generates print information data, and sends the generated print information data to the management server
