<strong>Main Report or Narrative: </strong>On my first two days back at Reavis, I began by first apprising the tech situation at Reavis, which, as to be expected, had deteriorated. The first issue was that the printer in Mr. Johnson's office apparently wasn't printing for whatever reason. I couldn't replicate the error that he had apparently been having, so I pretty much did nothing on that end. His computer was also not connected to the Lexmark printer in the main office, but I had forgotten the techco password for the school, so I couldn't install the printer driver. I got to that on Friday though.

The next two issues that I tackled were for an after school program at Reavis, where the teachers needed wireless access and laptop access. For some reason the laptops that Terry and I had fixed up last year were still in storage; I'm not sure what was up with that. I think they also need a good cleaning before <strong>anyone</strong> touches those things. I'll have to get to that too in my spare time or something. But for some reason, the teachers couldn't log into the laptops, and it seems that the standard accounts either hadn't been installed or somehow I was just failing in typing the password for the school account. Either way, I had to leave in a rush on Thursday, so I told the teacher to try different laptops until it worked, because the school/student account seemed to work on most laptops, just not some.

I also helped an intern (or something like that) with wireless and printer access. I provided the wireless login, which worked just fine. However, I did have problems with adding the printer in room 204 to her computer. I still don't have too much experience with OS X, and I couldn't figure out how to add a network printer on it. I had to mess around with it a while before I got it to work (Google didn't help me on this one :( ). I also touched base with Mrs. Casaday, the new AP, though there didn't seem to be too much going on tech wise.

On Friday, I had a few different issues. First the new teacher in room 207 needed assistance with connecting her laptop to wireless and printing. The wireless was easy, but I couldn't figure out how to get the shared printer from 204 onto her system. Her laptop was running Windows 7, and wasn't connected to the domain. I tried to get her laptop onto the INSTR domain, but it kept on returning errors no matter what I tried (unfortunately I forgot what those errors said &gt;.&lt;). Her version of Windows 7 wasn't "genuine", but I doubt that that would have been causing the issue. In the end I was forced to give up and go attend to other things.

Ms. Casaday also requested that her laptop be connected to the printer in the counselor's room, but it apparently was out of batteries, so I didn't get around to that. The only other thing I did on Friday was to try to connect Mr. Johnson's computer to the main office printer, but I only got the driver to finish downloading before I had to leave. I'll get to that some other time.
