Re: Using private APNIC range in US

I once had a customer who for some reason had all their printers on public
addresses they didn't own. Not advertising them outside, but internally
whenever a user browsed to a external site that happened to be one of the
addresses used, they would just receive a HP or Konica login page :)

They didn't mind though. No idea if they've changed it since.
