When I was teaching I always called this "proofing by photocopying," 
because I'd make up a handout for the class, print it and proof it 
twice, correct the mistakes, then print and make 50 copies. As soon 
as the photocopy machine finished, I'd be able to look at the results 
and immediately find all the errors I'd missed before!

Seemed to be invariable -- no amount of proofing *before* copying 
flushed out all of the errors.
