1. A networked computer system comprising:
- a printer configured to print visible graphic data and invisible coded data tags on print media and to receive transmitted sensed data associated with the data tags;
a pen-type device including an image sensor configured to sense the data tags on the print media and wirelessly transmit the sensed data to the printer; and
one or more servers interfaced to the printer via a network, and configured to receive the sensed data from the printer and process the sensed data,wherein each data tag includes;
a detection ring for allowing the image sensor to detect the data tag; and
an orientation axis located within the detection ring and for allowing the image sensor to determine a planar orientation of the tag.

Abstract
A networked computer system includes a printer configured to print media bearing visible graphic data and invisible coded data tags and receive transmitted sensed data associated with the data tags. A pen-type device includes an image sensor configured to sense the data tags and wirelessly transmit associated sensed data to the printer. One or more servers are interfaced to the printer, via a network, and are configured to receive the sensed data from the printer and process the sensed data.
