ABSTRACT:
A computerized point-of-sale terminal for use in laundry and dry cleaning establishments includes a keyboard for entering items to be laundered or dry cleaned, characteristics of the entered items, and services to be performed on the entered items, and a printer for printing a ticket. The terminal also includes a stationary bar code reader positioned to read a bar code on a ticket being moved by the ticket transport mechanism of the printer. The printer, ticket transport mechanism and bar code reader are all controlled by programmed routines being executed by the computer of the terminal. By using a single ticket transport mechanism for both the printer and the bar code reader, the number of parts as well as the weight and bulk of the terminal is reduced.
