HELP! how do i stop it printing stuff nobody wants?

Open a browser on a computer connected to the sudoroom network, and go to http://192.168.1.8 Then... i don't know what to do.

Configured to connect to the SSID "sudoroom" with static IP 192.168.1.8

You can access its web interface from the sudo network: http://192.168.1.8/printer/main.html

The user is "user" and its password is "sudoroom" - the admin password is kept by Yar
