Hi, In r15334 I added Brandon Enright's Printer Job Language service probe from http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2009/q1/0560.html. I would like it to have wider testing. The probe as it stands is inactive because its ports (9100-9107) are the same as the Exclude ports. So you will have to do a little extra work to test it. Open the nmap-service-probes file and comment out this line near the top: Exclude T:9100-9107 It should look like this when you're done: # Exclude T:9100-9107 Then, run this scan over a network with a printer or anything listening on ports 9100-9107: nmap --datadir . -PS9100-9107 -sV -p 9100-9107 <network> The --datadir argument is important to make sure Nmap is using your edited nmap-service-probes. We are interested in positive and negative results. If the probe identified all your printers correctly, please let us know. If you got back a service fingerprint, send it in. If the probe messed up your printer and you have to reboot it, or if it printed anything, that's particularly noteworthy. Check to make sure you can still print after running after the scan. I really don't think there will be problems with the probe. I just want to be extra careful considering that it's potentially using a physical resource.
