COMPUTER MICROFILM PRINTING

L'ORDINATEUR IMPRIME SUR MICROFILM

The author explains the technique of the C.O.M. (Computer Output Microfilm), which can be employed in public administrations, libraries or large undertakings, in order to "print" computer data on microfilm. A scanning device and reproduction of the film by automatic developing apparatus enables the desired documentary consultation to be effected. Thanks to miniaturisation and the computer working speed, numerous advantages may be mentioned: saving in space for the classification of documents, abolition of the multiple binding tasks, clearness, with easy and rapid consultation of information, reduction of staff and working costs. Taking banks as an example, the author shows that the C.O.M. can provide customers with a faster and better quality service.
