Hi there,
I'm very pleased to see this project, yet I'm confused by the sheer number of .deb files. I dont want to use a repo just download a small set (a singke deb would be nuce) and apt-get it.

I own a 2165W MONO LASER, which is just a printer (no scanning) and comes with both usb and wifi.

But I DONT USE WIFI, I dont want to use wifi, I dont want to assign the printer an ip address or install a gui to configure wifi or ip addresses.

I just want a driver that works with the usb port, assigns the printer a port name and then lets me print to it.

How to do that and what subset of deb files I need, would be nice to know.
Before some know-it-all wants to lecture me on "why dont you follow the standard procedure" let me inform you that this is for use on an embedded system with very low disk space booting the OS from a CF card, so I want and NEED to minimize installed crud to a minimum, thats why I dont want any tcpip or wifi config gui installed that I will later NOT USE.

Finally, let me suggest to the nice project admins that if you repackage an usb-only,printing-only subset of the deb files, I'm sure it would please a lot of people, not just me.

TIA for any constructive criticism or tips.
