A method and apparatus for verifying content of partially printed purge sheets of confidential documents just after shredding the purge sheets but before the individual strands become separated and disassociated is disclosed. The purge sheet can be passed through a single nip paper transport to a shredder and then to a scanner in order to verify the content of the purge sheets. The scanned document can also be stored on a DFE (digital front end) disk, which provides visual documentation of, purge sheet destruction and can be utilized for later reconciliation. The individual strands of the purge sheet(s) can be separated and disassociated to a container in order to ensure destruction. A small electronic controller board associated with the scanner provides function control and communications to the DFE. |
