System and method for updating printer location information field

A system for processing imaged feedback information, the system comprising:

• a mobile device located in proximity to a physical printer, the mobile device having a processor and memory, the processor configured to execute:
• a location information collection module of the mobile device that collects coordinate-based location information;
• and
• an administrator interface connected to the location information collection module to:
• present a user interface providing a first identifier of the physical printer for selection by a user of the mobile device in order for the user to select the physical printer;
• obtain an indication uniquely identifying the physical printer through imaging the indicator using a camera of the mobile device, the indication uniquely identifying the physical printer representing feedback information made available by the physical printer at a physical location of the physical printer for confirming the mobile device being actually located at the physical printer associated with the first identifier;
• and
• submit to a printer resource database server the coordinate-based location information in combination with information pertaining to the indication uniquely identifying the physical printer for updating location information associated with the physical printer stored in a resource registry with the coordinate-based location information as a current location of the physical printer;
• wherein the coordinate-based location information is obtained from a location service selected from one or more of a GPS satellite system, a Wi-Fi location-based service, an IP address-based service, and a cellular tower-based location.
