Vulnerability scan triggers HP printer to print pages
Hi all. It appears that the Armor vulnerability scan always causes my HP Laser printer to print three pages, containing a client version or similar. E.g. curl and version number or so. I'm quite s...
- Now I have been running 2.5.1.16 for quite some time and so far not a single page has been printed out.
So perhaps this update finally fixed the issue.
Finally. Thanks.
.30 was distributed (at least to me) just a few days ago. I know that .36 has been available as a HOT FIX release for ages, so I was also surprised to see .30 coming out now.
So I would tend to say that .30 is way newer release, but maybe then feature wise it's stripped version of the .36. I can't explain the numbering any other way.
Anyway. .30 release notes don't mention anything about Armor updates, or barely anything useful at all. So it's hard to tell what's the real difference there.
Ah btw. My weekly scheduled vulnerability scan is due on Sunday. I was planning to keep the printer on this time to see if there's any difference. I'll give another post afterwards.
Updated firmware to 2.5.1.8. Had to do it manually as the in-app update no longer functions (iPhone). So far so good re the four junk pages printing. However, my toner ran out on Sunday and UPS was only able to get my "next day" shipment here on Friday (today). So, I missed Wednesday this week when my scan normally takes place. Will know for certain this worked next week. Good luck all.
