Interesting article, thanks a lot for sharing!

So the guy gave Xerox more than 2 years to fix a critical bug, that they acknowledged existed, and they still haven't done anything. This tells me all I need to know about how Xerox values the security of their customers. And the VersaLink are not exactly cheap printers ($700 to ~ $10k depending on model), not that this would be an acceptable response even on the cheapest, not network connected, printer.
