HP is dedicated to providing the best and latest security information available for HP printers. This checklist is intended to help you improve printer security, particularly for printers on networks open to the public internet.
HP printers are shipped in an un-configured state, which allows the customer to more easily configure the printer for their network environment. However, if the printer is not properly configured, it might be vulnerable to intruder attacks. HP strongly recommends configuring minimum security settings for all HP printers to eliminate the majority of security exposures.
