Got this email form my customer, he has a 3800C DT1 and an AP4510 on his network, they are using Windows NT. This is too far advanced for me.

We have a guy in Maine who has been checking on network and he printed to our
printers and told Peter. So what I need is there any thing that your network person
can think of that we can do to make sure that no one can print from out side the company

Can anyone help?

I'm not too sure about the Ricoh AP4500 Printer, but the AP3800C can be "secured" so that only hosts with a certain IP scheme can print to it. Try to configure the Access Control Address and the Access Control Mask on the NIC. If you read your network manual, it will explain how to set this up.

Hope this information helps....

Yeah, you're right, we have to configure Smartnet to only allow certain users along with the user enchance module for color printing. The president of the company resides in Maine and occassionally hires a hacker to test the security of the network. The hacker was able to print to the color laser AP3800.

I was playing around with some searches on the www some time back and found two Xerox 24ppm printers located at a major university in Great Britain. I was able to submit print jobs over the internet and watch the status of the controllers change from ready to printing and back to ready, read the counters, watch them increment, etc.

Thanks!
