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...

So perhaps this update finally fixed the issue.
Finally. Thanks.

Downgrading to .30 from .36 did NOT fix the printing issue.

Adrian97c that's curious, as my RBR20 has now been running .30 SW for 1,5 weeks now.
Assuming the old schedule, it should've been printing twice, which it hasn't.
Printer still seems to work, so I have sort of a feeling that for my HP, which I originally reported the problem with, is now somehow in order with the Armor.

All right. So now after quite some time the printer printed out the garbage pages again. So I now switched the printer off again and let's see about the next FW update again.
So definitely this is still not fixed.
Why the behavior is not consistent every week is strange, did the vulnerability scan interval change, or is the Armor behavior simply no longer consistent.
