Claim:
1. A non-transitory computer-readable medium embodying a program executable in a computing device, the program comprising machine readable instructions that, when executed, cause the computing device to at least: generate an expected value for a physical characteristic of a plurality of pages in a stack; store the expected value in a memory; identify the expected value based upon an input of an identifier associated with the pages in the stack; obtain an actual value of the physical characteristic of the plurality of pages in the stack corresponding to the expected value, wherein the actual value is obtained from a sensor in data communication with a binding device, wherein the sensor is used to measure the actual value of the physical characteristic of the plurality of pages in the stack; compare, before binding the plurality of pages in the stack, the expected value with the actual value; and initiate a stop of the binding device if the actual value is not within a predefined delta of the expected value.
