[K12OSN] interesting printing thing

[Mel Wade]

This might solve a problem I've been having with 6.0.  I'm getting printers
on the student network in the dorm showing up on my LSTP server.  I don't
want them there though since users don't have the rights to print to them
and they just add confusion.  I'll try unchecking those boxes and then
trying to delete them.
