My reward for getting both our printers working on Casuarina today.

My reward for getting both our printers working on Casuarina today. No thanks to Xprinter (my label printer manufacturer) for distributing their driver as a rar file with a .deb inside. Which meant `rar` -> `deb` -> data.tar.xz -> finally PPDs and filter binaries. That was fun to package.

@dysfun some printers are ok... manufacturers less so. I suppose I should be thankful they support Linux at all.

@wezm my current one doesn't, but it does support macs, so i was able to obtain the required pieces since that's CUPS too.

@dysfun this one has binaries as well as the PPDs, so requires a bit of extra support. Although I expect if I was motivated enough I could probably massage https://github.com/cbiffle/raster-tspl-rs into a replacement for them.

@wezm now to be clear... this isn't a 3d printer, and you didn't print cake...

@metaning I have one of those, but it was not involved in the cake, or getting printers working today
