Abstract
A method for transferring data (for example, image data) from disk storage directly to a peripheral device (for example, a pelbox) in which address information identifying disk storage locations where the data is stored is sent to the peripheral device, and a command is sent to the peripheral device to initiate data transfer from disk storage directly to the peripheral device using the address information received by the peripheral device.
