I did this the old fashioned way with a Konica Minolta machine when I was about 20 in 2008 while bored working at a car dealership. A service technician resembling Santa Claus arrived one day to fix it (unrelated to my access attempts) and he told me how they still have the “lp0 on fire” error codes from when he first started working, when the printers had actual drums that could in some cases catch fire if there was a printer jam
