This has not really anything to do with LPRng, sorry. But I thought perhaps others here could have come across the same thing...
Now and then, we find a sheet with garbage on it, that appears to have reached the printers outside the normal queuing mechanisms, there are no log entries. They are all similar, but I don't know if they are all equal. I scanned one sample here: http://folk.uio.no/hanspv/z3.png Basically, I's just one line of extra-ascii characters printed on top, sprinkled with a few backspaces so they overlap. They start with "z3", or rather z^H.3 or perhaps .^Hz3, ie. the first character is a '.' superimposed on a 'z' or vice versa. I assume these are the results of (hostile) scanning, worm activity or exploit kits. They are mostly just annoying, but I would like to stop it all the same. Has anybody additional info on this? I tried google, but "z3" etc. just yields a lot of links to BMW.... regards, -- Hans Peter ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- YOU MUST BE A LIST MEMBER IN ORDER TO POST TO THE LPRNG MAILING LIST The address you post from MUST be your subscription address If you need help, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (or lprng-requests or lprng-digest-requests) with the word 'help' in the body.
