Adding Print Support to the XOs

by iwikiwi for Sugar Labs educational platform (a member of the SFC)

One of the drawbacks the XO laptops suffer from is the lack of a printing scenario. My project will not only add USB printing and include a moodle CMS plug-in which will feature a teacher moderated/intervened environment through which the teacher will be able to check the print jobs from students and approve/disprove accordingly, but it will also be having a PDF conversion facility which can be used on the image/doc mime types saved in the XO datastore for conversion.
