Abstract

A printer (10) which is configured to automatically transmit data, such as critical and non-critical printer data, and route that data through at least one of a plurality of communication channels and services, such as via e-mail or mobile wireless equipment (e.g. an Internet-ready pager (150), a Personal Communications Service (PCS) phone (160) or a wireless Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) (170)). Preferably, the printer is configured such that it can be programmed and controlled from a remote location. Preferably, the printer is configured such that new label formats can be added from a remote location, and label formats stored in the printer can be viewed and modified from a remote location. Preferably, the printer is also configured such that barcode rendering algorithms can be downloaded to the printer, and such that printer settings can be viewed and modified from a remote location, and thereafter can be downloaded to the printer and/or to other printers (10a, 10b, 10c) in a network to facilitate cloning.
