my opinion

I am inclined to agree with Ol_Besh that this is "патентная примочка" - he wants to be sure he is covered whether the function is performed by the computer system as such, or not by the system but by some component within the system; same for the printer system. I would leave the equivalent of "by or in" in Russian.
You think this sort of thing is peculiar to Ennglish patents? You should look at German ones!

agree Ol_Besh : Thank you for expressing your opinion, Jack! And German patents are "ein Ding fьr sich" anywhay. I really could sing a song about them...
