Point-Based Printing System Resolving Material Consumption Costs

The patent introduces a server as an intermediary that manages point balances for both transmission and reception users. When content is printed by the reception user, the server automatically transfers points from the transmission user to the reception user, compensating for the printing material consumption. This mediator system enables content distribution while offsetting the substance loss through automated point management.

The patent changes the economic parameter of printing by introducing a point-based compensation system. Instead of the reception user directly bearing the cost of printing materials, the system transforms the cost structure by allowing point transfers from transmission to reception users, effectively changing the parameter of material consumption cost from a burden to a compensated expense.

The server acts as a mediator that resolves the conflict between material conservation and content dissemination. By automatically managing point transfers when printing occurs, the system removes the user's direct financial concern about material consumption, thereby enabling higher printing volumes without proportionally increasing net material loss, as transmission users bear the cost through their point balances.

The patent converts the potential harm of increased material consumption from high printing volumes into a benefit by implementing a point compensation system. The transmission user's points are transferred to the reception user, turning the material consumption that would normally be a loss into a beneficial exchange that enables content dissemination while tracking and compensating for resource usage.
