Detectives were able to run relatively simple tests to determine that the file had last been saved by a user named "Dennis," and it had been printed using one of the printers at the nearby Christ Lutheran Church.

Maybe the article is badly worded, but it seems like they got metadata from the file, not the floppy disk itself.
