I would speculate that a VPN for one service might be overkill, if that |
| 6 |
service is easy to secure. It is also a transparent mechanism for |
| 7 |
encryption over the net that would work with other services too (email, |
| 8 |
http, and the like). |

If you are likely to set up these services, you might consider a VPN to |
| 11 |
make your life easier in the long run. But if printing is the only |
| 12 |
thing you need to do, you might want to avoid the configuration of a |
| 13 |
VPN and just set up SSL. |

Encrypting your print data, in my opinion, is a very good idea. |
