Abstract
An electronic device includes a scanning device for converting indicia and markings on a printed medium into scan data and a configuration device that receives the scan data. The scanning device is capable of scanning a user-fillable configuration sheet marked by a user of the electronic device and creating the scan data, with the scan data including one or more configuration indicia. The configuration device is capable of decoding the one or more configuration indicia to create one or more corresponding configuration values and configuring the electronic device with the one or more configuration values.
