All:

Wrote a little script that I use when pen testing:

http://pauldotcom.com/printerwalk.sh

It uses the default SNMP password to walk the printer Mibs.  It would be
nice to integrate this tool with libPJL from phenoelit.  If you mod it,
please share (it needs some work).

Nmap port 9100 and idle scan the inside.

Also good place for an attacker to store files but I don't store files during 
a pen test.

I guess it would also be a good place to gain information if you had the time 
to spend.

My favorite is to change the display greeting. Hehe

Mark,

I have found that pft from http://www.phenoelit.de is quite helpful
when performing audits on printers.

Unfortunatly, I have yet to see a guide to securing printers, although
FX's chapter in_Stealing The Network: How to 0wn_ the box, was quite
infomative on the subject of attacking a networked printer (BTW, his
chapter was "h3X's adventures in networkland").

Compromising a printer can yeild some useful results, especially if
its an HP printer with Java installed. Also, you may have gained some
admin passwords to try.

And on a somewhat childish side note, if you telnet to port 9100 on a
printer, type a few lines and then kill the connection via ^], the
printer will print out what you typed, although it will be
unformatted.

Hope some of that helped.

Haven't looked at printers in a while.
Are there any best practices hardening and audit docs for printers?

Not sure what you mean by SA password, but HP printers run Java, which is
turing complete. If you have full access to the printer you can make it do
absolutely anything you want - it's just as good (or better) as owning a
workstation.

Check out some of the phenoelit stuff to scare yourself:
