Yes. For example, if the printer, copier or multi-function device has a hard drive, it may contain old copies of University data previously printed/copied/faxed/scanned that are long forgotten. These files should be securely deleted. If the device has a password and configuration options, it will require additional technical attention to prevent misuse from the Internet.
