Printer ignor paper size and type.
We have a shared HP printer, LJ 4515 that we only keep plain letter size paper loaded into. Print server is 2008 R2. Workstations are Win 7. Occasionally someone will print a document with letterhead paper selected. When this happens, the printer stops, prompts to load letterhead and other jobs get backed up in the queue waiting for the ok. We would like the printer to ignore the letterhead request and just print the job on the loaded paper. Anyone know if this is possible? All my googling returns just the opposite instructions. Thanks for any pointers anyone can share. ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/ ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
RE: Meraki
If they changed that to a 90 day grace period, then they will limit themselves in another way (Maybe a single SSID, or limited bandwidth, or limited antenna power, something like that...) I would feel better about it. I just hate having to deal with anything that _depends_ on a service on the internet. What if that service is retired, or the company disappears?

Re: Meraki
I'll bet they have a backdoor that they're not willing to provide or outline right now. Maybe, but I doubt it. Otherwise someone would have found it and exploited it. Also, if the APs have this feature, do the switches they sell do the same thing too? Will they stop passing traffic? Also, I'll be keeping my eye out for alternative firmware as a hedge against this particular issue. Ooh, good idea.
