Zebra Z4M Plus (300dpi) Driver Version 7.4.2 Seagull Driver Networking on Port 6160
What is this used for? It's been identified as a vulnerability. If I go to http://localhost:6160 it opens a page with this text:
GET / HTTP/1.1 Accept: text/html, application/xhtml+xml, image/jxr, */* Accept-Language: en-US User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; WOW64; Trident/7.0; rv:11.0) like Gecko Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate Host: localhost:6160 Connection: Keep-Alive �
Why does the print driver have this port open?

I believe in legacy driver release like 7.4.2 that port was required for the Language Monitor which I understand is connected with bi-directional printing and print status commands etc although not 100% sure. More recent driver releases use a different port (5130?).
As 7.4.2 is quite an old driver release (from 2016 I believe) and unless you are still running Windows XP or Server 2003 machines then it maybe worth looking to replace these anyway.with 2020.1 being the current driver pack
