Abstract: A method for identifying shopper locations and providing enhanced shopper services is provided. The method includes transmitting a beacon having information identifying a printer, from the printer and detecting the beacon and the information identifying the printer, with a mobile device. The method includes sending the information identifying the printer from the mobile device to a cloud service and receiving location aware information from the cloud service into the mobile device, wherein the cloud service determines a location of the mobile device as within a beacon-detection vicinity of the printer associated with the information identifying the printer.

Abstract: A method for registering a printer to a cloud service is provided. The method includes coupling a mobile device to a printer, via a wireless connection and sending at least a serial number from the printer to the mobile device via the wireless connection. The method includes obtaining geolocation information from the mobile device and registering the serial number of the printer and the geolocation information, associated with the printer, to a cloud service, using the mobile device.

Abstract: A method and system for automatically configuring a plurality of wireless peripheral devices within a network environment. The method includes identifying a plurality of wireless peripheral devices, including one existing networked wireless device. The existing networked wireless device is configured to function as a master device. The master device identifies one of the remaining wireless peripheral devices that has yet to be configured. The master device replicates itself by wirelessly transmitting the configuration data to the identified wireless peripheral device. The configuration data enables the identified peripheral wireless device to assume network operation and to assume functionality of the master device so as to be capable of automatically causing the configuration of additional peripheral devices.

Abstract: Methods and systems for intelligently printing labels based on order data are described. One example method includes receiving order data at a receipt printer. The receipt printer may be communicatively connected to a POS terminal adapted to receive or generate the order data from an operator's entries. The order data may then be transmitted to a label printer and processed at the label printer to generate corresponding label data. The label printer may generate the label data with reference to a plurality of pre-defined templates. In addition to or as part of generating label data, the label printer may also generate customer data based on the order data.
