Re: testing
Given how much intelligence we can pack into a printer why does any OS need to do anything other than say 'here's the data, get on with it'?
It means that the printer manufacturer can save $1 in making it and offload the hard work to a computer that has to have vast resources just to be able to run Microsoft Windows.
They need to build them cheaply in case they do not make their money back if the user does not buy their over priced ink.
