Rodger,

  In general I agree and for printers in particular I believe that mutual
authentication is a must.

  I am not a fan of clear text id/password so given we are adding something new
on the printer
client side at least it seems to me that going with TLS  is a good approach and
the 1416 trick
I proposed might be the way one obtains a  ID/password  if the printer does not
have a
certificate.
