If the company photocopier suddenly starts pumping out ads for penis enlargement products, there may be a reason…
Using Google hacks — requests typed into the search engine that bring up cached information on networks — hackers are discovering and using login details for networked photocopiers so they can watch what is being copied.
“You don’t have to be a genius to do this,” said Jason Hart, security director at Whitehat UK. “You can see what people are photocopying on your monitor. You just have to search for online devices on Google.”
Something like searching for passwords, I presume?

Heh.
It is very real. I have personally printed short “heads up” messages on people’s printers.
