Check print drivers on all computers connected to this machine and make sure they are genuine Ricoh drivers found on the Ricoh website. Not "Ricoh Class" drivers or IPP drivers.

But I will bet that the C3004 is still connected to the internet through a router. The 9100 is the standard TCP/IP printer port raw network printing. Finding an exposed network printer overnight is one of the first steps in hacking your entire network.

connected to the internet . dns 192.168.1.1

That is your local area network side of the router not the internet side. You need to setup a firewall on the router. If you don't know how to do so, hire an IT service to do it for you. Show them the overnight printouts you are getting.

You can just lock the machine. Only those computers that have access code can print.

anyway dont worry too, the ricoh mfp with the firmware always updated, They always have the latest security packages, and are able to resist the most brutal attacks, not for nothing are they used in military and government security environments, rather it's IT who is to blame
