Office of the Information Commissioner’s Privacy Tips

Empty the Tray (and the Internal Memory)!

Don’t leave documents sitting on the trays of your fax, printer, or other multi-functional device.

Refer to Records Management Standard 4 – Security
http://www.nt.gov.au/dbe/it/records/standard4.html

These days copiers, fax machines, and printers store some of what you
have printed on a memory chip. Make sure you have it wiped before you
get rid of an old machine.
