Adding a new printer
********************
This appendix covers adding a new ESCP/2, PCL, or Canon printer.
Writing a new driver module is not covered.
The three steps to adding a printer are:
1. Add an entry to `printers.xml'
2. Add the appropriate code and data to the appropriate driver module
3. Tune the printer
Printer information is stored in two places: in `printers.xml'
(which contains the list of printer models available to the the
upper-level application), and in the appropriate driver file
(`print-escp2.c', `print-pcl.c', or `print-canon.c').
