The only problem is it has to be done right. Say you use a newer printer and it's compromised.... you could lose it through there. Rare yes but not impossible. The dumber the printer the better, also if you print a wallet might look into how to clear cache on your printer.

Power it off?

I dont know about you guys but I have a normal printer that prints only. Not with wireless crap and other stuff that has attack vector.

I just power off the printer, and the cache clears, because it doesnt have memory card and things like that.

This is mainly for commercially used printers. In which case a power off would not help either, because they use a harddisk for long term storage. AFAIK this is not common on end user printers.

I see, well, dont print out sensitive info with 3rd party printers ever.

There are many shops that offer printing services, but one has to be a fool to print out sentitive data with them.

Only use your own printer (not even your neighbors) to print out sensitive data.
