Standard HP Printer Management Password
-
We have a bunch of HP printers on our network and 99% of them have blank passwords to get into the web management. This is being flagged as a security issue on our network. I want to push out a management password to all printers. Is this possible or will I need to configure all of them one by one?
P.S. I know hackers aren't going to get into our network and change the tray configuration, but my boss wants the security scan notices to go away as we are having pen testing in a month and they flag us for every little thing.

Actually - this might be the perfect low hanging fruit to leave behind. If you think you have most other things tightened up... it's good to leave some low concern, easy to fix items. Auditors will just keep digging until they find something to report on.. this satifies that while giving you an easy fix after the fact.

I just love the idea that they might! "Yeah, it was terrible, we got hacked by the North Koreans and now all our print jobs go to tray 3"
