Is there a way to prevent a user from renaming an AppleTalk
ImageWriter and/or LaserWriter?  I am in a lab situation
where we would like to prevent malicious users with 
"The Namer" from renaming our print stations.

Also - This may sound REALLY strange, but we have an
AppleTalker ImageWriter II that hisses.  Yes, that's right.
I haven't taken it to my dealer yet or opened it up.
It periodically makes a hissing sound, EXACTLY like 
leaking air.

Any ideas?  PLEASE e-mail.  Thanks,

David Pakman
