Just need to all devices being sold with Wireless or Wi-Fi connectivity to support .1x.

I find it absolutely amazing how many products do not support .1x, especially when the technology is not new and is widely used.

I think we really need to kick up a stink and get manufactures to get Wi-Fi CERTIFIED on all product.

Lee,
I'm curious about the need to be on 1.x. Is there something compelling
that can't be accomplished using PSK, or even an open network that 1.x
can? If the printer supports IPPS or other SSL/TLS encrypted
communication channel, then does 1.x matter especially in a temp/quick
situation?
Just my quick thought would be to drop it into a open, wep, or psk, and
if required, use device profiling/policy classification to drop into
desired VLAN.

Not looking to debate the merit- sometimes the need is quick /temp and
there’s not time to cable. No disrespect, but looking for actual
verified 1x printers with the question.

If the cost of an outlet was more than the cost of a decent printer
it'd be an issue. Otherwise, the cost of the outlet is incidental to the
cost of providing the service and the 'value add'.

Can print / can't print cost difference of <$100. Value add of same?

It comes up as a request often enough to keep tabs on, for either
temporary placement or for locations that have power but not UTP.

Why bother? If you can run a power outlet, you can run a catN also, and
have guaranteed connectivity & throughput..

This is a good for a yearly laugh, so let me throw it out there:

Has anyone found- and confirmed through actual use- any enterprise
WLAN-capable printers or print servers that work with 802.1x WLAN
security?

Thanks-
