okay, story.

I'm in a frat, we just set up a network printer. now 2 weeks ago on our school's network you could force an IP and it would work. So we did, 'n than we locked the menu panel so no one would mess with it. Well this past weekend they changed the networking policy so that you can't force IP's. We got it registered 'n all so it'll DHCP properly, the problem is we can't access the printer to set it to DHCP. Can't access it over the network while it's staticing- it's blocked(well, not allowed to have traffic of any kind), can't reset it through the menu- locked that shut. Does anyone know where the hardware reset is? I can't find it in the manual...

Many thanks, from me 'n the frat guys who are buggin me alike :cool:
