Miniprint Description

Miniprint is a honeypot tool that simulates a networked printer exposed to the public internet. The tool implements the Printer Job Language (PJL) protocol over raw network connections to mimic a real printer device. The honeypot features a complete virtual filesystem that allows attackers to perform read and write operations on files and directories without affecting the host system. All file operations are contained within the virtual environment for security purposes. When attackers send PostScript or plaintext print jobs to the simulated printer, these documents are automatically saved to an uploads directory for analysis. The tool provides comprehensive logging capabilities to track all interactions and attempted attacks. Miniprint can be configured with various options including custom host binding, log file specification, and connection timeout settings. The tool is designed for installation using virtualenv and pip3 for proper dependency management. The honeypot serves as a deception technology to attract and monitor attackers who target exposed printer devices, providing insights into attack patterns and techniques used against network-connected printers.
