Good to know.  I will look into going to a newer version!

we have tried to work around this in the last year and implemented a few
additional mitigations which showed quite good results as long as the
printer was detected.

This is handled in the following NVT:

http://plugins.openvas.org/nasl.php?oid=12241

by excluding common ports (namely 9100-9103 and 9112-9116 / tcp) by
default which are known to print gibberish if touched.

There might be still quite a lot printers out there which we don't
detect. If you're still facing issues like this any additional
information about your printer (HTTP, SNMP SysDesc, Telnet, FTP banners
etc.) are welcome.
