Unlucky people exist :-( ... this might be the reason behind a few hard to 
replicate nightly failures I had with Bacula at my previous job. The problem 
is unlikely to be with the printers listening, but rather with printer 
drivers scanning the network for autoconfiguration. I am no longer in the 
position to test this; at the time, Bacula was at 1.36.x so this might have 
been corrected in the meantime.

Thank you for your consideration,
