Tricky, tricky!

I just found a really cool prank that you can play on your friends just in time for Halloween. Digg had a post from a guy who created a perl script that you can use for some office fun. You add the message of your choice to your script, complete with the IP address of the affected HP printer you want to use, and your message will appear on the LCD! Can you imagine the looks on your co-workers faces as they approach the printer to make a few copies and see the message "Get Me Out Of This Printer" Ha!! Of course, the size message you should send depends on the size of the printer LCD.

The post is here complete with instructions on a useful installation to use if you want to run perl on Windows.
