Printer & Fax Machine Forensics
- Some fax machines, copiers, and printers can contain exact duplicates of the last several hundred pages sent and/or received. The information from each of these functions may be stored on internal hard disk drives ( HDD ). This information may be of value as evidence in Civil or Criminal cases.
- Fax machine logs can also tell a story about where faxes were sent and when.
- Faxes sent or received via computer may remain indefinitely on the computer's HDD.
- Larger printers and copiers now have Hard Disk Drives on which the print job is stored before printing. Logs of who printed and perhaps copies of the print job may be contained on these Hard Disk Drives.
