Abstract
A method of associating a digital version of a document with a printed version of the document, the method being executable by a processor and comprising the steps: (a) instructing a printer to print the document; and, substantially at the time of printing, (b) transferring, to a portable solid state memory device, data interpretable by a processor to enable subsequent reprinting of the document. The invention also provides an electronic device electrically couplable to a printer, computer or network, configured to couple with a portable solid state memory device and to receive data corresponding to a print job, and operable to write data to the said solid state memory device, substantially at the time of printing of the said print job, to enable subsequent reprinting of the print job. Also provided is a solid state memory device having an integral clip by which the device may be clipped onto a printed document, the device being operable to store digital data interpretable by a processor to enable subsequent reprinting of the document.
