HP Printer gone wrong..

Well, at my school, they have HP printers, and they have displays.. So, you know, its fun to mess with teachers, so I used the HP Printer display hack, and even compiled my own version of it.. It was fun..

But then, I remember, once you can connect to it with telnet, you can do almost anything.. So I went in and made the default print amount 999… lol..

It seems that I didnt end the @PJL BOJ and so, whenever i typed anything into the telnet, it printed it out 999 times.. So, yaknow, i would have stopped it, but the bell rang..

I now hope to learn more info on the PrinterJobLanguage, and do more pranks, but not something like that, 999 sheets of paper is a waste..

If you know anything about this, let me know..

Thanks
