@steveideas: Every time you print on a piece of paper, the printer adds a set of nearly invisible tracking dots so the paper can be traced back to that exact printer. #interestingfacts #funfacts #printers #tracking

“No, I can’t print this black and white document, because your cyan is low” is finally relatable now.

Which is also why you need color ink even to print in black and white

Wonder if you could get round this by printing a blank sheet of paper on another printer then re-inserting it into a different printer as it would have double the dots

unless you register the product with the manufacturer after purchase which 99% of people don't , there's no way to track, I work in a few electrical retailers and no serial numbers are captured

The way around this is print same document over and over again from different printers. Basically engraving 5 vins on 1 tag. Messes the system up
