ABSTRACT:
A dispensing machine for publications such as newspapers. Signals transmitted from remote sources are received by the machine, processed and then printed on the publication at the dispenser's site prior to being dispensed. Currency, subscription or debit credit cards, or all of them, may be used to permit the dispensing of the publication from the machine one-at-a-time. There is a visual display on the dispenser which shows the most recent information to be printed on the publication. Provision is made to encode specific areas of interest on inserted subscription cards such that the same will be displayed and printed on any dispensed publications. For newspapers, the most up to date headlines or information selected on from a subject menu (e.g., sports, business, national or local news, etc.) can be printed on a blank section of the newspaper to be dispensed, thus giving the readers the most recent news available.
