That's not very polite if you ask me. To do such a thing! NOT POLITE AT ALL. ><

When I read this thread, I stared up at my printer, expecting a big red eye to be looking at me. I was sorely dissapointed. :(

Like counterfeiters use their home inkjet printers to print money.

My printer is completely useless. It can't even do tricks, like jumping through a flaming circle.

Isn't this like common knowledge?

Seriously, I know they've done like Law & Order episodes about this.

I figure my printer is so dumb, even if it was spying on me, it would get it wrong, like most things I try to print.

Reminds me of how there's built in protections in colour copiers to prevent you photocopying money, where it detects yellow dots arranged in a specific pattern and will refuse to copy that item :p On British money, the dots are the yellow circles on the queen's head watermark on the £10 and disguised as the green musical notes on the £20, for example :p I don't have a £5 or £50 on me at the moment though to see where the patterns are on those :p

I never keep my printer in the same room as the kids. Someone please think of the children.
