[sane-devel] Ricoh with Airprint

Yeah, the package is broken on installation, they ship it on a .exe with a
.deb inside, and it's outdated. But it works for the 3710.
Does not work for the SP 377sfnwx (which my company also uses).

This worries me as it seems Ricoh gives no importance to other systems than
Windows.

So I thought "let's use their airprint". It's totally broken, does not even
work on macosx.

But thank you for the suggestion :)
