ABSTRACT:
A system and method are disclosed for supplying a rental service provider such as a hotel or an automobile rental agency with advance printed notice of customers who are approaching the hotel or agency aboard a shuttle bus from a nearby airport, thereby enabling the hotel or agency to prepare rental agreements for the customers in advance of the customers' arrival. First, a credit card reader receives one or more credit cards and automatically reads the data contained thereon. A computer directs insertion of the data into a memory buffer and establishes a radio frequency communications connection with equipment at a remote location. The contents of the memory buffer are transmitted via the radio frequency connection to the remotely located equipment for printing, and the communications connection is automatically terminated after the printing of the data.
