Computer vended postage

These are also called ATM stamps probably everywhere except the US.

The Swiss Frama company came up with a working model that would also print various single-color designs as well as denominations. Those first appeared in 1976 in Switzerland, gradually spreading throughout much of Europe. While Frama machines are still in use, other companies with experience in electronic machinery like bank ATM/cash point machines also produced their own versions including full-color designs on self-adhesive stamps.

Collectors should be aware that the imprinting methods used (often thermal) are like those for cash register receipts and therefore data can fade over time. The base paper can be more fragile than other postage stamps.
