Patent ID: 6867876

Claim:
Apparatus comprising: an image capture device which generates a digital record; a printer interface which generates printed copy signals corresponding to the digital record, the printed copy signals being effective in printing an image derived from the captured image when coupled to a printer; a controller which couples said image capture device and said printer interface, said controller having a first network interface which connects to an area network for bidirectional exchange of digital data; and a second network interface which connects to a second network for bidirectional exchange of digital data; a control program stored accessibly to and executable on said controller, said control program when executing enabling a user to select delivery of the digital record to a selected one of said printer interface, said first network interface, and said second network interface; and a memory coupled to and housed with said controller; said control program when executing on said controller further enabling a user to store a database of address information in said memory and to selectively access one of said database of address information stored in said memory and a second database of address information stored remotely from said controller and accessible through said first network interface.
