The present invention discloses a method of adding storage function to computer peripherals and architecture thereof. It solves the problem that the computer peripherals do not have storage function, and cannot carry drive programs and relevant data files. The present invention is to add semiconductor storage device to various computer peripherals, and have the storage device readily identifiable and readable by a host computer, while the added semiconductor storage devices will not affect application functions of the computer peripherals. The computer peripherals of the present invention utilize the universal bus interface to connect with the host computer, including the application system capable of performing the application function of the computer peripherals and the additional semiconductor storage device. Through the host computer, the drive program, application program, and data files can be read or written or operated in the additional semiconductor storage device. The present invention can be used in various computer peripherals, such as printers, scanners, plotters, video cameras, modem, storage device or digital cameras, MP3, PDA, etc. <IMAGE>
