I work in a classroom with thirty one computers. One is my personal computer that i have all my printers installed on. One is for my assistants. I have a black laser, color laser, hp design jet plotter, and a Toshiba color copier. I need the design jet and the color copier to have a password on them for my assistants because other students have to be able to use this computer also.

I would like to do it with out any soft ware, but if i have to the technology budget is almost empty so free would be best. Also we use novel iprint on all of our printers this shouldn’t affect any software suggestions.
I can NOT create accounts using Windows we use Novell to login, it MIGHT work the same be I’m not sure. Do you know?

Block all incoming open IP’s or Ports.
Damn, this is going to be hard to explain, but you can block access by configuring your network.
Firewire ports help if you know how to deny access to the protocals.
for example 2wire lets you type in homeportal in the URL without the (http) or (www) and lets you access the whole entire network and you can monitor who is using your network, therefor you can block them or stop all incoming open Ip’s
From there you can also create a password protect for printer networking, where one password gives everyone access to print.
