  (rdar://problem/50000749)

  correctly (Issue #5557)

  (Issue #5506)

• Updated the USB quirks rule for Zebra label printers (Issue #5395)
• Fixed a compile error on Linux (Issue #5483)
• The lpadmin command, web interface, and scheduler all queried an IPP
  Everywhere printer differently, resulting in different PPDs for the same
  printer (Issue #5484)

  (Issue #5535)

  Issue #5489, Issue #5491, Issue #5492, Issue #5493, Issue #5494, Issue #5495,
  Issue #5497, Issue #5499, Issue #5500, Issue #5501, Issue #5504)
• The scheduler did not always idle exit as quickly as it could.
• Added a new ippeveprinter command based on the old ippserver sample code.

Enjoy!
