ISP has some general guidelines here:
https://security.berkeley.edu/resources/best-practices-how-articles/network-printer-security-best-practices

In general, restricting FTP and Telnet as well as enabling ACLs or IP
ranges is the best approach.  If you have a print server, you can go even
further and restrict printing to only the Print Server IP address.
Otherwise, campus IP ranges at a minimum but that still might result in
some spam from others on campus.
