Printers are affected by vulnerability scan

We have a couple of printers that are affected by the WithSecure vulnerability scan in that they print out 50 sheets of 'code' and other random text items whilst being scanned.
Is there a feature on the printer we can turn off so this doesn't happen? We have 50 printers throughout the business and only a couple are affected.
For reference, the printer is a Kyocera TaskAlfa 3051.
Thank you.

Hi @Outonalimb
Thank you for reaching out WithSecure Community page,
System Scan may cause your printer to print strange things if the LPD port (tcp/515) is open. You can exclude that port during scanning or disable the LPD service if necessary.
Please feel free to reach us if the issue still remains.
Thanks
Sethu
