<p>The present invention provides a method and system for converting print data into both discrete data and images. The invention includes pseudo printer implemented as a simulated SMB/CIFS printer on a local area network. The pseudo printer captures raw print data from a network device sending a print request for a document. The data is captured as a Device Independent Print Definition file. A data map that identifies pixel coordinates for image regions and discrete data regions within the document is retrieved according to the MAC address of the device sending the print request. Images and discrete data are then cut out of the document and uploaded to a remote server.
