A system for mainly transferring various information of a newspaper, a magazine, an advertisement, and the like by dot data is provided. Data information provided from a newspaper company, publishing companies, and the like is converted into electronic press information via an electronic press producer 20. The electronic press information is dispatched from a center to an information vending machine through a satellite line or a terrestrial line. Dispatched press data is once accumulated to a recording unit in the information vending machine. When it is identified that an information fee has been paid by cash or a prepaid card, desired data in the information accumulated in the recording unit is written into a recording medium such as an IC card or the like of a consumer.
