The company I work at has decided to put printers on separate VLANs to cut down 'broadcasts' I'm a bit perplexed about this: the printers are almost 100% HP Jetdirect many using DHCP settings. I would assume that the only time a broadcast would occur would be when renewing an IP lease. Other protocols are swiched off (IPX etc)
Comments appreciated---does this make sense? Is the added support overhead worth it? The switches are 6500 series Cisco
