Abstract
A preferred embodiment of the invention is specifically configured to allow a printer's or a user's account to accumulate a credit balance and for all or a portion of this balance to be presented to the corresponding user or users as a collection of "points". If the printer account has a credit balance, then the corresponding points may be redeemed by the user or users for particular products or services. Users thereby learn to associate fee-earning activities in relation to the printer, such as the printing of advertising and online purchasing, with the accumulation of points, thus maximising the likelihood that a particular printer will not become a cost burden to its provider.

identifier means for applying an identifier to the first printed media such that designation of the identifier by the user results in the module generating a second printed media that displays to the user second information obtained from a second database;
memory means for storing account data indicative of either or both of: the number of times the first information is obtained from the first database; or the number of times the second information is obtained from the second database; and account means being responsive to the account data for selectively accumulating a credit that is allocated to the user and which is redeemable by the user for obtaining selected goods and/or services.
2. A system according to claim 1 including:
a first server means of a first party for containing the first database, the first server means being accessed selectively by the module for obtaining the first information; and a second server means of a second party for containing the second database, the second server means being accessed selectively by the module for obtaining the second information.
a first server means of a first party for containing the first database, the first server means being accessed selectively by the module for obtaining the first information; and a second server means of a second party for containing the second database, the second server means being accessed selectively by the module for obtaining the second information.
3. A system according to claim 2 wherein the first and the second server means are constituted by respective hardware and software.
4. A system according to claim 2 wherein the first and second server means include common hardware and/or software.
5. A system according to claim 2 wherein the first and second databases are separate.
6. A system according to claim 5 wherein the first and second parties are separate legal entities.
7. A system according to claim 2 wherein the databases are comprised of different portions of a single database.
8. A system according to claim 7 wherein the first and second parties are the same legal entity.
9. A system according to claim 8 wherein the second information is derived from a fourth party and the calculation means is responsive to the account data for applying a financial debit from the first party and/or the second party against the fourth party.
10. A system according to claim 2 wherein the first party and the second party are separate legal entities and the account data is indicative of both the number of times first information is obtained from the first database and the number of times second information is obtained from the second database, the system including calculation means responsive to the account data for determining a financial debit to be applied by the first party against the second party.
11. A system according to claim 10 wherein the account data is a number and the debit is proportional to that number.
12. A system according to claim 10 wherein the module is provided to the user by a third party and the calculation means is responsive to the account data for determining a financial debit to be applied by the third party against the first party or by the third party against the second party.
13. A system according to claim 12 wherein the calculation means determines:
a financial debit to be applied by the third party against the first party in proportion to the number of times first information was obtained by the module from the first database; and a financial debit to be applied by the third party against the second party in proportion to the number of times second information was obtained by the module from the second database.
a financial debit to be applied by the third party against the first party in proportion to the number of times first information was obtained by the module from the first database; and a financial debit to be applied by the third party against the second party in proportion to the number of times second information was obtained by the module from the second database.
14. A system according to claim 2 including a plurality of modules for a corresponding plurality of users and the calculation means is responsive to the separate memory means for determining the number of times in total that the first and the second databases are accessed by the modules.
15. A system according to claim 14 wherein the memory means are collectively comprised of a central memory.
