I think, "alpha" and "beta" a good to describe development states of 
software. For hardware support qualities "Perfectly", "Mostly", 
"Partially", and "Paperweight" are better. The above should be 
translated as as follows:

    stable      -> Perfectly
    beta        -> Mostly
    alpha       -> Partially
    Unsupported -> Paperweight

Then the levels match exactly the ones ones on linuxprinting.org (see 
http://www.linuxprinting.org/database.html).
