By providing this list, they are making it super easy for the secret service to give the "no dot" manufacturers a call/visit (which is who asked for the dots to be on there in the first place if I am not mistaken).

They could always use the lego printer http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1397675

If the Secret Service is relying on the EFF to figure out which printers don't have tracking dots then they might as well just give up and go home.

I would imagine they already have a much more comprehensive list anyway.

I would think that the secret service has the funds to purchase a specimen of each released printer model and test it themselves.
