We have some departments with color printers that are expensive to run.
Students send stuff to those printers by mistake. It seems to me that I
have heard of a way to hide an Appletalk based printer so it doesn't show
up in the chooser. I believe it had to do with naming the printer with some
special character as the first character of the name. Where can I find
information on this?
We have had a number of old routers based on a 286 in our network that
blocked Appletalk. We have been removing those and now we have a lot of
printers and no zones. What is the best way to introduce Appletalk zones to
our network, Netatalk or Windows NT server?
