I'm currently supporting a printer vendor with a client issue. Their client
will not accept TCP/IP printers because they're worried that someone will
"tap-in" to the line and pickup the data in the clear. They're insisting on
an ESCON/parallel attachment. The printer vendor I'm working with got rid
of the parallel interface 5 years ago and doesn't really want to support it.
Has anyone ever dealt with this paranoia yet? Do any printers on the market
support an SSL interface?
Regards,
Tom Conley
