There is no connection from a random printer you buy somewhere anonymous to you. They can "only" verify something was (not) printed with that printer.
No you don't get it, if you swap paper with your cousin before printing the feds won't have a fucking clue.
No, I don't think that's how it works. Regardless of what paper you feed it, the printer will stamp it with its unique yellow dots pattern.
Are you serious dude? 3 days late just for you to bite on some joke response?
As I said - but there could be a connection. Did you use cash or a card? Some places you have a membership, or they ask if you want the receipt on your mail...
There is still no connection. How should there be one?
Feel free to believe that. 🙃 Far be it for me, to educate you...
So you just want to say things you believe and not tell others why you believe them and even dislike being asked?
