Problems solved by technology

However, the connection and removal of such an external storage device is cumbersome for the user of the printing device.
Therefore, the printing device may misoperate in this case
In addition, for other POS peripheral devices that store setting information by the same method as the printing device, the same erroneous operation as the printing device may be performed.

Embodiment Construction

[0015] Embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below with reference to the drawings.

[0016] Overview of POS Peripheral Devices

[0017] First, the outline of the POS peripheral device according to the embodiment will be described.

[0018] The POS peripheral device includes a storage unit that stores setting information, and a control unit that controls the storage unit. In addition, the control unit transmits information indicating that the communication device operates as the communication device to the first device when the first device is connected as the external device. Furthermore, when the second device is connected as an external device, the control unit transmits information indicating that the storage unit operates as a memory that stores information in the storage unit to the second device.

[0019] Thus, the POS peripheral device according to the embodiment can easily write setting information to the storage unit. Hereinafter, the configuratio...

Abstract

The invention provides a POS peripheral device and a control method for the POS peripheral device. The POS peripheral device includes a storing section configured to store setting information and a control section configured to control the storing section. When a first device is connected as an external device, the control section transmits, to the first device, information indicating that the POS peripheral device operates as a communication device. When a second device is connected as the external device, the control section transmits, to the second device, information indicating that the POS peripheral device operates as a storage that stores information in the storing section.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to a POS peripheral device and a control method for the POS peripheral device. Background technique [0002] Research and development of POS peripheral devices connected to POS (Point Of Sale) terminals are ongoing. In addition, POS peripheral devices are, for example, customer displays, scanners, printing devices, change machines, card readers, card writers, CAT (Credit Authorization Terminal, credit authorization terminal) and the like. [0003] In this regard, as an example of a POS peripheral device, there is known a printing device that reads setting information stored in an externally connected storage device after the power is turned on, and reads the A printing device that sets the setting information in the device by writing the setting information in the storage unit (see Patent Document 1). [0004] When the printing device described in Patent Document 1 stores the setting information in the storage unit, it ...
