Any of them should work if you insert some sort of VPN router right in
front of them. Give the router the printer's "public" address, then put
a private non-routable net between the router and the printer.
What about AFTER this secure stuff prints, will it grow legs and walk off?

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?
