Regarding Printers with public IPs, the very first thing that jumps to
my mind is 'What do you consider a printer?'. I say that because quite
a few of our printers are ImageRunners or that sort of networked
copier. The kind with 80GB harddrives and convenient web interfaces
that let you log in and pull up images of the last couple thousand
pages that were printed on it, then save or re-print them.

If that doesn't trigger alarms with data security, nothing will.
