Too funny....
Yeah, check your network printer to make sure it hasn't opened a port to the internet. Better yet, disable uPnP on your router and power cycle your printer. Today it's just a fun prank, but these exposed services may also be used to hack into your network or add the printer to a botnet.
If I was a corporate IT manager I'd just start eating Xanax like candy from now on. It's only going to get worse.
