<p>A system is provided having a sensing device for sensing coded data printed on a print media surface which is installed with a secret key and a first identifier which uniquely identifies the sensing device, a printer installed with a second identifier which uniquely identifies the printer, and a server installed with the first and second identifiers. The printer obtains the first identifier from the sensing device and communicates the first and second identifiers to the server. The server determines from the received first and second identifiers whether the sensing device should be registered with the printer and if so, authenticates the sensing device by verifying an encryption from the sensing device, using the secret key, of a challenge message. Upon successful authentication, the sensing device is registered in the server so as to be associated with the printer.</p> |
