Depends on your topology. We don’t have or want a PSK WLAN, and don’t want to pop them up either. Single open network is a guest network, would have to change how it works and do some routing tricks to let printers work from behind it. We don’t do RADIUS attributes either to drop into different VLANs. All environments aren’t the same and .1X support for business devices in business settings seems appropriate.

Lee, I'm curious about the need to be on 1.x. Is there something compelling that can't be accomplished using PSK, or even an open network that 1.x can? If the printer supports IPPS or other SSL/TLS encrypted communication channel, then does 1.x matter especially in a temp/quick situation? Just my quick thought would be to drop it into a open, wep, or psk, and if required, use device profiling/policy classification to drop into desired VLAN.

If the cost of an outlet was more than the cost of a decent printer it'd be an issue. Otherwise, the cost of the outlet is incidental to the cost of providing the service and the 'value add'. Can print / can't print cost difference of <$100. Value add of same? -- ian Sent from my phone, please excuse brevity and/or misspelling. ________________________________ From: Lee H Badman<mailto:lhbad...@syr.edu> Sent: 12/02/2015 19:40 To: WIRELESS-LAN@LISTSERV.EDUCAUSE.EDU<mailto:WIRELESS-LAN@LISTSERV.EDUCAUSE.EDU> Subject: Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Annual Exercise in Frustration: Printers that do wireless 1x? It comes up as a request often enough to keep tabs on, for either temporary placement or for locations that have power but not UTP.

This is a good for a yearly laugh, so let me throw it out there: Has anyone found- and confirmed through actual use- any enterprise WLAN-capable printers or print servers that work with 802.1x WLAN security?
