Hi everyone, I was thinking about if a certain penetration test scenario was applicable. What if there was a target PC (that has no IP) connected to a printer through a parallel cable, where the printer has an IP and you had access to this printer through the network. Would you be able to compromise the connected target PC if you gained control of the printer? If so how. and if not why? I tried looking for an answer but to no avail.
