Sleuths Crack Tracking Code Discovered in Color Printers

3. well if you are stupid enough to make hard copies,
then you should get caught. Just Kidding. I don't mind them doing this, I just want them to tell me that they are. Let me make the choice if I want to use the printer. Just another way how the gov't can screw with its people in the name of crime-fighting.
