1. A print medium configured to be printed on by a mobile device in a print direction, the print medium comprising:
- a laminar substrate defining first and second opposite faces; and
a data track containing first information encoded in accordance with a linear encoding scheme, the data track extending in a linear read direction along the print medium in the print direction, the linear encoding scheme being selected to enable clock data to be extracted from it while the print medium is being moved past a printhead in the mobile device, for use in synchronizing printing onto the print medium using the printhead.
