And what do you use to make it so your Network Printer is all that is
allowed access.

Thats true, as per the Qubes docs on network printers, I cloned the F
Template and installed the printer driver in it, then use it as the
Template for an AppVM that just does printing, but occasional I'll
browse to some URL to print a webpage.  BUT, I also use the AppVM as the
default for disp appvm's to be based on so I can print from attachments
to emails etc ,  and hence,  for the vault, it was also the default...

so did go and change that fwiw :)

PS
AM not using webmail, as primary, so would need more something for IMAP
or ? IMAPS ,  not sure if it is really necessary on top of whatever
sys-firewall does  etc

which is why I was asking what if anything typical qubes users do with
the  firewall tab in the VMM
