Hi Bobbie,
 
On my printer I can open it and click on 'Properties' and then click on the 'Advanced' tab.  On mine there is an option there for  an 'Available From' button that I can set to any time I want.  The printer won't work unless it is between that time.  You might just want to put 'Pause' on your printer if your "friend" doesn't know much about the computer.  Good luck.
 

With Love,

Hi All,
    A "friend" of mine, (I've only known her 6 months) who lives in my apartment building comes in and use's my computer ! AND printer.
  I don't mind her using the computer to go on line BUT I do mind her printing out so much stuff.
  What can I do to the printer (through the computer maybe) to temporarily disable it while she stops by?
