A system, device and method for recording information to be included on a substrate in both human and machine readable forms. The system includes a programmable stamp which can be affixed to the substrate, and a data recording and input device is provided for use with the system. The data recording and input device includes a pen; an accelerometer system generating signals representative of the movement of the pen; a memory; a wireless communications system; and a processor responsive to the accelerometer signals and communicating with the memory and the wireless communications system. In a first mode the processor is programmed to process the accelerometer signals to recognize data written with the pen and store the recognized data in the memory. In a second mode the processor is programmed to control the wireless communications system to transmit the stored data to the programmable stamp.
