Technical Details

what runs on :8614

BJNP is a Canon proprietary device protocol available over both TCP and UDP. Canon printer software and open-source printing backends commonly use a family of BJNP ports, including 8611–8614, to communicate with networked printers and multifunction devices. The protocol is generally exchanged directly between a client and the device rather than through a web service, and its application data is not encrypted by default.

security overview

BJNP should normally be restricted to the printer's local network and not exposed to the public internet. Because it is a proprietary, typically unauthenticated and unencrypted device protocol, exposure may permit unauthorized device interaction, status disclosure, or print operations; internet-wide exposure is uncommon and unnecessary.
