I have a printer that is refusing serverdict commands,
%%[Error:PasswordIncorrect; OffendingCommand: exitserver ]%%

I read this as somehow a password got set.
After reading the printer manuals, I have found out the
password is stored in NVM.

Is there any way to reset the password via PostScript?
Is there a way to do it physically (a switch)?

The printer is a TI OmniLaser 2115, and the serverdict
worked before this week..

Please send replies via e-mail and I will post a summary.

Thanks.
