Is it possible to add yellow dots or the opposite of yellow dots (assuming they are additive?) to the printed content such that the existing dots become noise?

Just a guess, but I would be willing to bet that some of these manufactures ensure that the tracking appears outside of normal printable boundaries.

Buy two of the same printer and they'll scramble the code!
