A system for browsing a computer network includes at least one server that
is programmed to generate page print data incorporating visible data
representing information for reading and invisible coded data. At least
one network printer is connected to the server and is configured to print
the visible information with conventional ink and the pattern with
invisible ink that is capable of being read with an optical reader. At
least one optical reader is connected to the, or each respective, printer
and is capable of detecting the invisible ink to generate a signal
representing the coded data. The, or each, server is programmed so that
at least a portion of the coded data represents at least an instruction
to one or more servers to retrieve further page print data from the
network.
