   Out of curiosity and an experiment; I did this, booted a live LM Cinn:   
      
   dl/ed carps-cups-master.zip extracted it and looked at the text files   
   carps.drv, carps.txt, carbs.usb-quirks, readme.md   
      
   Made sure I had the required files installed seen in readme, installed   
   some, and performed the two operations make and sudo make install. I   
   wasn't able to interpret the output seen in the terminal related to   
   operations by carps-decode.c but I was able to see at the end something   
   related to ppdc carps.drv.   
      
   Then I found the places where there were cups files and dirs: usr/lib   
   etc/ usr/include usr/share & man and looked around there to see whether   
   any of those had been changed to current contents related to carps, and   
   there were.   
      
   I don't have any way to evaluate this operation w/ any kind of carps   
   printer.   
      
   I also opened up the cups browser interface at localhost:631, but I   
   couldn't find anything related to carps in there.
