Printer For Printing Form For Interaction With Sensing Device
First Claim
1. A printer comprising:
- an interface for receiving print data;
a printhead for printing a form, using the print data, by printing;
information related to at least one text field; and
coded data at least partially indicative of the at least one text field, the coded data being coincident with the information;
a transceiver for receiving indicating data from a sensing device, the sensing device, when moved in an operative position relative to the at least one text field, sensing the coincident coded data and generating the indicating data by determining an orientation and position of the sensed coded data within the at least one text field relative to the sensing device, the indicating data being at least partially indicative of movement of the sensing device relative to the at least one text field determined using the orientation and position of the sensed coded data; and
a processor for transferring the indicating data to a computer system to allow the interaction to be interpreted.

Abstract
A printer is provided having an interface for receiving print data, a printhead for printing a form, using the print data, by printing information related to at least one text field and coded data at least partially indicative of the text field, the coded data being coincident with the information, a transceiver for receiving indicating data from a sensing device, the sensing device, when moved in an operative position relative to the text field, sensing the coded data and generating the indicating data by determining an orientation and position of the sensed coded data within the text field relative to the sensing device, the indicating data being indicative of movement of the sensing device relative to the text field determined using the orientation and position of the sensed coded data, and a processor for transferring the indicating data to a computer system to allow the interaction to be interpreted.
