Working with Hawking Technology Ether print servers

Recently I wrote about measuring performance of Ethernet print servers, and in the process ended up learning on of them in particular fairly well. I'd gotten about halfway through a tool for managing the family of ether printservers from Hawking Technology when the project decided that these weren't going to work for us, so I dropped it.

But figuring that somebody else out there may want to use these units under UNIX, I mostly finished the tool and the documentation, so it's no longer necessary to use the vendor-provided PSAdmin Windows tool to set the IP address parameters.

This has been tested with the H-PS1U Ether-to-USB printserver and the PN7127P Ether-to-Parallel printserver.
