warehouses, public places …

INTRODUCTION.
To operate copy-machines in self-service, one has to rely on a reliable and efficient payment system.


PAYMENT BASED ON COUNTER VALUES.
When copiers are always surveyed –as in a small copy-shop- , it may be sufficient to release the copier and read the number of copies made at the counter to charge the customer..
The Cartadis TC-counter has proven to be a very cost-efficient, simple  and reliable tool since many years.



PAYING COPIES WITH COINS
When the copiers are used by passing-by customers, it may be valuable to install a payment terminal accepting Euro-coins. 
The Cartadis CM4000 proves to be very straight forward in warehouses,  small bookshops or at service centers.






PAYING COPIES WITH THROW-AWAY MAGCARDS.
 In libraries or larger copy shops where more frequent visitors wish to make copies, preloaded paper magstripe cards have proven to be very effective.
The cards are preloaded with a certain value of number of units and can only be used in one particular place.
The Cartadis TC11N payment terminal van accept both paper and plastic rechargeable cards and can make the distinction between 4 prices (e.g. colour/black  and A3/A4)
Besides providing a very reliable and cost-effective solution, the cards increase customer loyalty.


COMBINING PREPAID CARDS AND WORKING ON AN ACCOUNT.
In many environments different customer groups can make use of the same copier: e.g. visitors that have to prepay for the copies and employees that may make copies on the budget of their department.
The Cartadis TC4N is made just for this and accepts both preloaded or reloadable magcards as well as department cards. The countes on the TC4N can easily be consulted to obtain detailed consumption reports per department or job.
