I do not hablo perl. I am a 52-year-old script kiddie with over thirty years experience in administering Microsoft networks.

All of a sudden one of my printers has started periodically spewing out reams of paper with a couple of lines of random characters. But the first page included the following, and a google search led me here. Can anyone help me identify where these printouts are coming from and help me stop them? 

GET / HTTP/1.1
