When this happens, please send me the full report (and KB, if
possible) of the scanned printer and I'll make sure we update the
plugin to prevent such behavior in the future.
Thanks,

Remote operating system : HP Deskjet 6127
Confidence Level : 50

The remote host is running HP Deskjet 6127
3 of these printers are being scanned and printing junk
5 other printers are not
Synopsis :
The remote host appears to be a printer and will not be scanned.
Description :
The remote host appears to be a network printer or multi-function
device. Such devices often react very poorly when scanned - some
crash, others print a number of pages. To avoid problems, Nessus has
marked the remote host as 'Dead' and will not scan it.
Solution :
If you are not concerned about such behavior, enable the 'Scan Network
Printers' setting under the 'Do not scan fragile devices' advanced
settings block and re-run the scan.
