We are in a bind here. Does anyone have any good suggestions as
to how we can run a thin security optic-fiber cable through some part of
the laserprinter? The places which we can think of putting the cable
through are just peripheral places that won't really secure the
laserprinter.
Has anyone faces this problem? How do you secure you
public-area laserprinters? Help!

If you remove the paper tray, you'll notice that the bottom of the printer is a "honeycomb" with a cell size of 1" x 3-4". We made four metal plates to fit 4 of those cells, 2 in front & 2 in back, drilled holes in them and the corresponding positions on the bottom of the printer, machined a big plate that goes under the printer, bolted and peened it all together. The big plate on the bottom extends beyond the front and rear of the printer itself (be sure to use stock thin enough to clear the small gap between the bottom of the printer and the table). We are using case-hardened steel chains to secure it all to a table, but one may also use fibre-optic cables or whatever. Here's a rough sketch that may clarify. _________________________________________________________ | (paper tray slot) | | | | | | -------- (plates) -------- | |_______________________________________________________| ___________________________(bottom of printer)______________________________ (big plate) -------------------------------------- ^ ^ | bolt positions | -- David Harrison, Dept. of Physics, Univ. of Toronto | "Why do 3 notes make a UUCP: {utgpu,sq,oscvax}!utfyzx!harrison | triad and not a triangle?"
