1. A method for processing digital paper based machine instructions from a user having a digital pen comprising:
- receiving digital paper based user input data;
determining if the user can be authenticated;
if the user is authenticated, obtaining a user profile;
using the user profile to determine if the user has privileges required to process the digital paper based input date; and
if the user has the privileges required to process the digital paper based input data, causing the machine to process the digital paper based input data.

Abstract
Systems and methods for providing paper based user interfaces to machines are described. In one example, a business machine receives user input from a digital pen and paper system and determines if such input is authorized. In another example, a business machine processes a batch of prewritten user inputs from a digital pen and paper system when the digital pen is collocated operatively connected to the business machine.
