For the evaluation we are only planning on supporting local printers.
Networked printers have the problem that you are unable to ensure label
integrity while the data is traveling over the network. With
exclusively local printers there is a /dev device associated with each
printer. Then it is possible to just use chcon to set the range on the
device.
