  • Publication number: 20030149573
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for registering a device without requiring information identifying the user. The device's user provides input to the device that does not include information identifying the user. Such input may, for example, be a single action such as the pressing of a button on the device. In response to the user input, the device transmits a registration request message to a registration server. The registration server receives the registration request message and, in response, registers the device. The registration server may transmit a registration confirmation message to the device to confirm that registration has occurred successfully. Registration may include registering the device with the device's manufacturer or registering the device for use with a service, such as an online printing service.
