Why does HP ship printing and imaging devices without device security set?
Print environments can support many network protocols and services. More specifically, the method chosen for printer installation, configuration and management may differ greatly between customers. • Example 1: Customer A chooses Telnet to configure their devices, while Customer B opts for HTTP (Embedded Web Server) and Customer C, SNMP (HP Web Jetadmin). • Example 2: Customer B uses HTTP (Embedded Web Server) to configure the device and SNMP (HP Web Jetadmin) to manage or monitor it. By default, device security is not set to present an excellent network installation experience and ensure maximum compatibility for most environments. Once installed, HP imaging and printing devices allow individual control over these protocols and services and let administrators enable only the functionality required.
