Not really. There are printers out there (ie: HP) which will print
whatever text they receive on a given set of ports (9001, typically).
Nessus (and any self-respecting scanner for that matter) *needs* to send
data to this port, to attempt to recognize the service it's running.
We might work around that be doing OS recognition first, then if it's an
HP printer not connect on port 9001. But that's an horrible kludge.
