Using a USB printer in an mdev system.

Hi, Gentoo.

In an mdev system, getting USB device nodes working well enough to
support USB printers is tricky.

I have just added a section to the mdev wiki page
(http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Mdev) explaining how to do this. Apologies
for any misuse of wiki markup (at which I'm a beginner).

Suggestions for improvement are welcome.
