Bug Description
The firmware files aren't loaded correctly when the printer is powered on, and it seems there _are_ no firmware files installed by the package at all.

At first, firmware files cannot be shipped with the distribution due to copyright reasons. Therefore the foo2zjs author has added the "getweb" tool to the driver to get the firmware easily downloaded from the manufacturer's web site.
The bug is that links to the script for UDEV-triggered firmware loading into the printer are missing and that the UDEV rules need an update.
