Description: This is an example of how dye sublimation printers can pose a security and privacy threat. The used dye sublimation panels contain a residual image of the printed document, and are simply spooled up on the waste roll. Someone digging through trash finding a used cartridge would be able to unroll it and see everything that has been printed. thumb This is a work based on the following GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 Wikimedia image: This derivative work was created by Dale Mahalko. The image was printed with an old Sony UP-D2500 photo printer. The used dye panels were then unrolled and photographed on white typing paper with a Canon PowerShot A630, and the brightness and contrast of the panels adjusted with Corel PhotoPaint to make the residual image in each panel more obvious.
