Abstract

The invention provides a POS system including an NC (network computer) serving as a POS terminal, a method of controlling such a POS system, and an information storage medium. The POS system includes a POS terminal, a printer connected to the POS terminal, and a store controller connected to the POS terminal. The POS terminal includes data generation means for generating transaction data, first data transmission means for transmitting the data generated by the transaction data generation means to the printer, and second data transmission means for transmitting the transaction data generated by the data generation means to the store controller. The printer includes first reception means for receiving the transaction data transmitted by the first data transmission means, and first nonvolatile storage means for storing the transaction data received via the first reception means. The store controller includes second reception means for receiving the transaction data transmitted by the second data transmission means, and second nonvolatile storage means for storing the transaction data received via the second reception means. A program for controlling these devices is stored on the information storage medium.
