We claim: 1. A method of printing a voucher comprising the steps of:providing a hand-held mobile telecommunications device that has a wireless transceiver for sending and receiving data via a telecommunications network, a printer for printing on a print medium with a predetermined print resolution and a sensor in a media fee path of the printer for sensing a data track and second coded data distributed across an area of the print medium during printing on the print medium, the data track extending parallel to a media feed direction in which the print media passes the printer, the second coded data encoding information indicative of a unique identity for the print medium;determining a geographical location of the hand-held mobile telecommunications device;determining a product or service available at, in or within a predetermined distance of, the geographical location;formatting a voucher containing information associated with the product or service;printing the voucher using the printer by generating a fire control signal from the sensor output as the sensor senses the data track in order to determine a registration between what is printed in the area of the print medium and the second coded data; andtransmitting information associating the unique identity of the print medium and the voucher to a remote computer system via the wireless transceiver.
