hi guys,

the tang hall printer has menu lock enabled.  could one of you disable it
or else let me know the password?  we need to turn on appletalk printing
so the house can print from their macs.

thanks,

oliver

The menu's on the printer are locked.  Control Panel Lock Status, and 
Control Panel Password Status are both enabled.  I can't change anything.  
How do I get around that?
