Abstract

See full text

A wireless mailing system that has a minimal number of interface cables between devices, while still maintaining full functionality, is easy to add devices to, and provides remote access for each device without having a dedicated telephone line for each device or having to transport each device to a telephone line is provided. A mailing system includes a plurality of devices, each of which is adapted to communicate with the other devices via a wireless communication link to form a local network. A gateway server can act as the master of the local network to coordinate communication between the devices in the local network, or alternatively, the devices in the local network can communicate directly with each other. Additionally, the gateway server allows remote access to the local network via a standard telephone network or other data network, such as, for example, the Internet.
