nessus knows a few systems within a range im scanning are in fact printers and skip over them. Though there are a few that it still scans even though it knows its a printer Remote operating system : HP Deskjet 6127 Confidence Level : 50 Method : ICMP Not all fingerprints could give a match - please email the following to [email protected] : HTTP:!:Server: Virata-EmWeb/R6_0_1 SNMP:!:Desk of Tari Boh 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. -- ..::x0SiN0x::..
