        Unlike the missile, those dots only work if the printer knows where it’s at. It’s why it’s a pain to get offline printer drivers.

        Yes, that is correct. But, a couple of file rename and Metadata edits and you can still do it. Don’t recommend it, because of regardless of who’s in control of the government, they will get ya and it will not be pretty. (talked to a guy who investigates fake money, wooo boy do they not mess around.)
