Have I mentioned that I hate printers?

It’s just about 7:00 in the evening, and I’m taking a dinner break before diving headlong into tonight’s project: Going from computer to computer in the building to remove the printer objects for the now-removed Savin copier/printers, and replacing them with properly-configured printer objects for the new Toshibas.

That’s right, today at noon the new copier/printer devices arrived. My entire afternoon and evening has been spent dealing with them… installing, testing, configuring, more testing, tinkering, more configuring, more testing.

Well, except for that fun hour when the corporate WAN went down. Thanks, Worldcom! I needed some more excitement!

Not being able to efficiently “push” the printers out to the network clients means a long night spent manually installing both machines onto each of some 60 computers around the building. Sometimes being a “Department Of One” really blows, you know?

See you in the morning, folks.
