I had no idea either. Why are hard drives being installed on copy machines? | |

That is the million dollar question. Printers are also coded... http://www.eff.org/wp/inv...r-printers If there are legitimate reasons for the privacy intrusions, then why are manufacturers not required to give proper notice to consumers???

I knew about this.
It's much faster to scan and reproduce from a saved file. It is saved on there in case of a paper loading error (still a major problem on copy machines), it can quickly reproduce what was scanned previous. It makes sense from a design standpoint, but unfortunately it's not as accessible to wipe clean as a computer hard drive, which I believe everyone is wary of leaving data on once they are done using the computer. | |

But why save more than 1 page? Couldn't they use some temporary memory storage, flash memory... just save the last page that was scanned... Scan a new page and the memory is replaced with the newly scanned page... | |

they also print on the copy info about when it was printed and on what machine, you can see the little micro dots. "Keep on shilling for Big Pharm!" |
