disabling appletalk on hp laserjet 2035

It came to our attention that a non-shared printer was showing up in the available printers list to any and all mac computers once they are on the network. We use these hp 2035's purely for printing personal information as local printers.

i'm under the impression that the reason for it showing up is it has appletalk running, how would i go about disabling that feature from the HP laserjet 2035?

after checking it is indeed the 2035n, and it is connected via a local TCP/IP port that was only configured for the user in question. i'm going to accept both solutions though because there is a lot of good info in the second post, and as you probably can tell i need all the help i can get with mac OS

I am not sure why the first author's comment got the accepted solution-- the printer does not have Appletalk. I pointed that out and then described what Macs now use instead of Appletalk, called "Bonjour," and further described how HP does not call it Bonjour, but the configuration item to look for is "mDNS." Finally, the first author didn't even tell you how to access the web configuration (EWS) page, but I did.
Anyway...
