Helped Mike Lemont with e-mail and address book troubles. Printed building schematics for Chris. Met with Cindy briefly about the caretaker for the computers in the student lounge. Finished the mockup for Ken's continuing education changes—he's putting the first full course online called Quality Assurance. Sent the mockup to Ken and Susie for review. James bought pizza for the staff in preparation for the student interviews which start tomorrow. Spent the afternoon troubleshooting the HP LaserJet 8000dn in the computer lab. The printer was jamming and being very slow. I did a cold restart to break through the console password, reconfigured the printer settings which were lost in the process, changed the idle timeout from 90 seconds to 5 seconds. Printing is back online; we'll see how the timeout change affects tomorrow's big print queues during class. Quick pizza at Escape From New York Pizza in the Haight. Saw Umbrellas of Cherbourg at the Red Vic Theatre. Caught up on e-mail.
