We have similar problems here with people switching printers from Appletalk
back to the serial port without power cycling.  The Apple prologue is still
in memory, and subsequent TeX/troff jobs mysteriously run out of memory...

If only there was a way to
a) given the exitserver passwd, clear the internal memory
or at least
b) reset the printer softly, without the damage repeated power cycling
   inflicts.
