[Printing-user-general] Support for Riso Kagaku Printer-Duplicators

Hi everyone,

I have been somewhat successfull working out a specification for the print file
format of the Riso Kagaku Printer-Duplicators [1].

Details can be found on my Homepage [2]. As can be seen there, there is no
driver
yet. Although I have only used print job files to get the specification (eg. no
disassembling or the like), I am not sure if it would be a good idea to create
the driver myself or let someone else do it based on the specification
(cleanroom approach). This is also the reason I have not uploaded the source
code for the parser yet, as there _may_ be some IPRs of Riso involved (but
unlikely).

Would be glad for any comments as well as any advice for further proceedings.

Greetings,

Stefan

PS: I have added two of these printers to the printer database, maker
RisoKagaku
