I've run out of ethernet ports in one room. I was going to buy a small switch, but I have a near newTD-8840 sitting unused. How do I need to configure it so that it will just function as a switch. Anything apart from disabling it's DHCP server?

That should be sufficient. You might want to check that the LAN IP isn't the same as existing hardware on your network.
