I'm going to try and submit a backend for this "soon". I've only read
about how to write simple backends for CUPS, which arguments are
necessary and so forth.
Therefore, I asked the gentleman who wrote a small standa-alone backend
to support the SELPHY series printers (as far as the call-back codes are
known, some models could not be found yet) for his support and will try
to port that code to a CUPS standard.
I am guessing I should post the code as an attachment in the
cups.development group.
