+CUPS has a rule to send raw binary data directly to the device without
+interpreting it first. If this device emulates a printer at the USB
+level, it ought to work. At worst, you may have to add the -oraw option
+or add a rule to /usr/share/cups/mime/mime.convs to force cups to treat
+the data as &quot;raw binary&quot; (instead of text, for example) so it's sent
+directly to the printer instead of being rasterized first.
