The amount of change calculated by the change amount calculating means and a minimum denomination of the vouchers distinguished by the distinguishing means are compared, and when the amount of change surpasses the minimum denomination, a signal is sent out by a signaling means.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2002,JPO
