Abstract
An electronic device includes a scanning device for converting one or more configuration symbols on a printed medium into scan data. The scanning device is capable of scanning a configuration sheet and creating the scan data, including the one or more configuration symbols. The electronic device further includes a configuration device that receives the scan data and is capable of extracting the one or more configuration symbols to create one or more corresponding address-independent configuration values. The configuration device is further capable of configuring the electronic device with the one or more address-independent configuration values.
