i was connecting it via IPP but the printer only supports JetDirect, for some reason CUPS now asks for a URI and i got confused, and there is no documentation from Epson, anyway, thank you

probably some agent from the country that starts with R, or from that other country that starts with C, or from one of those silly three-letter organizations

Im not irritated, im saying that your logic is flawed, stop using some software piece due to a vulnerability is at least dumb, every software will have at least one, open source or not, we are humans, we commit errors, example: the SMB vulnerability that allowed the quick spread of WannaCry in 2017, and that was on Windows, and actually we are lucky that this happened on open source software and not in some big corporation privative software, if that was the case, we wouldnt be able to know about the backdoor until a large cyberattack happened

if this happened on windows probably no one would have noticed it until a large cyberattack happened, also, using that logic no one should be using CPU’s created after 1995 due to meltdown / spectre
