(we're talking dead folks) Anyway, I read about a week ago that it was possible to burn a password into the LaserWriter. How is this done? I've combed through the docs with no luck. Also, once this is done, how and when do you enter the password so that the LaserWriter can be used. The whole idea here is that we would like to have people input a password before they are able to print things out. We need to do this because all kinds of pages are being printed out by everyone who shouldn't be using it at all. (especially for draft copies and 50 copies of a resume!) Is there an alternative method of doing this? Maybe Chooser could have a password that must be entered before the LaserWriter can be selected. We had been remove LaserPrep from our HD so that it would ask for the Printer Installer disk before it could print. Unfortunately some people caught on and made copies of this disk that they use. Someone help, please!!! Thanx in advance (if anyone had enough patience to read this verbosity) Joe Gunoz cmcl2!phri!cooper!joseph "The answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything is ... forty two."
