We are implementing a new medical billing sytem that requires secure data transmissions. We are implementing a VPN client solution to secure the data to and from the server. Our problem is that we have not been able to find a product that will allow secure transmissions from the server to the many HP Jetdirect networked printers. Currently most users print directly to the IP of the printer. We have toyed with the idea of connecting the printers through the LPT to dedicated P.C.’s and loading the VPN on the P.C. and using the PC as a print server but that seems highly ineffeciant and would be a support nightmare. My question is: does anybody currently work in a environment that requires secure transmisions to printers and what do you use to do this. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.
