  • Publication number: 20190294397
    Abstract: Producing a checkout transaction receipt for loaned media materials, such as in a library, includes storing in a first printer queue a basic print job, determining whether the basic print job is a raw type file or a non-raw type file, and triggering filtering of the basic print job based on a determination that the basic print job is a raw type file. Production of the transaction receipt also includes producing customized print job populated with transaction content based on checkout transaction data and custom content including promotional content based on stored custom content file(s). The customized print job is stored in a second printer queue, and printed to a transaction receipt printer or electronically generated for access by a patron. The strategy enables manipulation of receipts for adding promotional content without any need for additional hardware and regardless of preexisting institutional processes or computer systems that are in place.
