Abstract:
A system for advertising on a networked printer includes a target entity and a trusted source entity. The target entity includes a networked printer and a plurality of work stations operated by a respective plurality of users. Each workstation communicates with the networked printer. The networked printer includes a controller configured to generate a banner sheet. The banner sheet includes user identifying printer indicia for distinguishing different print jobs that are printed by the networked printer. The trusted source entity includes an advertisement delivery device in communication with the controller of the networked printer. The advertisement delivery device communicates with the controller of the networked printer to deliver an advertisement that is printed on the banner sheet generated by the networked printer.
