"Disable Printer Sharing
When Printer Sharing is enabled, the computer is established as a print server to accept print jobs from other computers. Disabling Printer Sharing mitigates the risk of attackers attempting to exploit the print server to gain access to the system. Using dedicated print servers or direct IP printing should be used instead."
Parameter:
[yes/no]
Technical Mechanism:
Fix:/usr/sbin/cupsctl --no-share-printers
