I seem to recall reading someplace that the NeXT printer is supposed to remain
off unless it is being used.  Well for some reason, lately mine has been
staying on, with all of the attendent noise, heat, and fan blowing.  Not real
loud like when it is actually printing, but annoying nonetheless.  I can
turn it off temporarily using /NextAdmin/PrinterTester, but it stays on after
the next time I print.

I can't find any documentation which covers this problem, and the printer is
not included in preferences.  Anyone know the solution to this one?
