Is it a conspiracy Dan? What is your purpose for posting this? Just curious.
Yahoo NewsWASHINGTON--Next time you make a printout from your color laser printer, shine an LED flashlight beam on it and examine it closely with a magnifying glass. You might be able to see the small, scattered yellow dots printer there that could be used to trace the do ent back to you.
According to experts, several printer companies quietly encode the serial number and the manufacturing code of their color laser printers and color copiers on every do ent those machines produce. Governments, including the United States, already use the hidden markings to track counterfeiters.

Have you been watching CSI?
Some of us don't have anything to be concerned about Dan! Have you been sending do ents to somewhere you shouldn't?![]()
Monopoly money isn't illegal to copy for personal use.
You know, for all the so called libertarians in this damn forum, no one ever seems to think of the implications of this.
Hmm, I print up a flyer for a protest and all of a sudden the government knows. I love it.
why should they? if NbaDan's name is there as the thread starter, the whole post is automatically garbage to everyoneYou know, for all the so called libertarians in this damn forum, no one ever seems to think of the implications of this.![]()
That'snot really the case Manny. Only printers capable of high quality color output have that. Common ink jets don't. Most b/w copiers don't do that either.
Who caresif thegoverment knows your protesting. Isn't that what you want?
Precisely. With an exception here and there, I shun threads begun by nbadan.
yet you're in the thread and it's obviously not garbage. Whatever.
Manny,
A buddy of mind did his thesis on this (it was a computer security class). The only printers and copiers that had this capability were running at a much higher resolution than anything you or I could buy off the shelf anywhere.
We're talking tens of thousands of dollars here.
WTF Manny. I read and reply to one of Dan's posts, and you lose all concept of the word ANOMALY.
Whatever.
