RatOS WiFi name change

Is it possible to change the broadcast SSID created by RatOS? I am building a second printer and the boss does not want them on the company network, so we have been logging in direct. But now I am setting up the second RPi RatOS image, there is only one RatOS SSID showing up.

Change the name in /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf

note, like most networking stuff that only applies to the raspberry pi image. the CB1 image does things differently

For those less experienced with Raspberry Pi and Linux (like myself): ssh into the pi Type the following into the command line
nano /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf
nano /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf
