Comment(by dru_ed):
The workaround allows me to create the printer however it is not
functioning correctly.
If the R5 PCL3 driver printer is set to USB port, printing form StyledEdit
sends created a "Print job" but it spends its time "processing" endlessly.
If the R5 PCL3 driver printer is to "Print To File" a file is created
quickly. However the output is wrong.
To test the "Print To File," I compared a known good PCL3 file and the
"Printed To File" by cp'ing to the device in Terminal:
{{{
cd /dev/printer/usb
cp /boot/home/Desktop/PrintedToFile.prn 0
}}}
The known good PCL3 file outputs correctly. The "Printed To File" output
a 100% black page from the printer.
