Network Printers Printing During Security Scan
I have Orbi RBR40 with 2 Satellites, I have and Epson Workforce WF-2650, Epson XP-7100, Epson XP-6000, and Brother HL-L2360DW printers all attached wirelessly to network, all the printers have update...
I am having the same issue as many on your forums. Every time their is a scan, I am printing 3 pages of curl commands. This is wasting paper and ink not to mention money due to my ink subscription. Help is appreciated along with a permanent fix like preventing Armor from scanning select devices. Thanks.
Since many customers (including me) are having this issue, maybe it would be more productive to just post the solution instead of privately messaging people; unless of course the solution involves comprimising the security of our networks, in which case it looks like a firmware update is in order.
NETGEAR is aware of this issue and the good news is that we have a fix under test. We are working on releasing the fix for Orbi and other Nighthawk routers soon.
I am having an issue regarding the Netgear armor security software. Each time it runs a vulnerability scan my printer spits out a few pages saying the following:
HEAD / HTTP 1.1
Host: x.x.x.x:9100
User-Agent : curl/7.59.0
Accept: */*
and other pages similar to the above.
How do i stop this please?
When will this fix be released?
I've been having these 3 pages printed ever since I received my Orbi, and am very eager to stop having my printer print on its own.
Thanks
II have exactly the same problem with an HP printer
