We have a shredder at work with a touchscreen. It is a shedder, basically just a motor and some rotating blades. But every time i use it i have to wait 30 seconds for the touchscreen to wake up. Totally useless.

I'm old enough to remember when shredders would just turn on when you inserted paper into them. No interface needed, touch or otherwise.

  • How did you change the shredding settings though?

    • The shredder needs to scan the document on its way through and send the contents back to the cloud for processing*, only then can the algorithm correctly detect the correct shredding settings.
