Abstract: A secure media device preferably includes a Universal Serial Bus (USB) Mass Storage Class (MSC) interface. A storage media area is also preferably provided. The storage media is preferably divided into a first and second area by arranging the storage media into multiple Logical Units (LUNs). The second area is preferably accessed in a conventional manner using a host USB MSC driver through the USB MSC interface on the storage device. A password dialog application can be located in the second area of the storage device.

Abstract: A service device that comprises a storage drive, where the storage drive includes an installer program, a device driver, and a mass storage interface. The mass storage interface is configured to enumerate the storage drive to a client device when the service device is coupled to the client device for a first time. The client device auto-launches the installer program in response to the service device being enumerated to the client device for the first time. The installer program installs the device driver in the client device in response to being auto-launched.

Abstract: A device list is created including one or more device objects, wherein each device object represents a physical device coupled to a computer system, wherein each device object includes one or more device attributes of the physical device. The device list is indexed into using a device attribute.

Abstract: A secure media device preferably includes a Universal Serial Bus (USB) Mass Storage Class (MSC) interface and a USB Human Interface Device (HID) interface. A storage media area is also preferably provided. The storage media is preferably divided into a secure and nonsecure area by arranging the storage media into multiple Logical Units (LUNs). The nonsecure area is preferably accessed in a conventional manner using a host USB MSC driver through the USB MSC interface on the storage device. A password dialog application can be located in the nonsecure area of the storage device.

The nonsecure area is preferably accessed in a conventional manner using a host USB MSC driver through the USB MSC interface on the storage device. A password dialog application can be located in the nonsecure area of the storage device. A preferred method of configuring a secured storage device includes dividing storage media of the storage device into a secure and a nonsecure area. A password for accessing the secure area is preferably set using a host USB HID driver and a USB HID interface on the storage device.

Abstract: A system of networked computers and peripherals and document delivery software which provides a user with a familiar simple user interface to deliver documents to a variety of different destinations. Each document generation device participating in the system is provided with a unified print driver which translates an electronic document into a non-specific or printer independent printer language file and appends to this file a job ticket containing any other rendering characteristics which may not be supported by the printer independent language. This entire file is then transmitted to the system server which analyzes the file, including the rendering characteristics; determines the best output device(s); appends output device specific commands to the general printer language file; and transmits this file to the device(s) for final output.
