I am currently living in a Fraternity house on Ga Tech's
campus so people are on my computer when I don't know it.
They print things off and I don't want them to cause Ink
is expensive. I was wondering how to set my computer up
so that to print you have to enter a password? I have
tried differene things but can't make it work. My
computer was changed out of FAT32 formate to the FTS
format. I have been told just to lock the computer or
create other users but i forget to log off every time i
leave. I have seen on a lot of public computers where
they have set it up where when you click the print button
it asks for a password to continue. Thanks a lot if you
can help.
