TODO summary of changes (rough) The third major release of this library dropy support for
Python 2 and required a Python version of at least 3.8.
The API has been reworked to be more consistent and two
new concepts have been introduced:
`Capabilities` allow the library to know which features
the currently used printer implements and send fitting
commands.
`Magic Encode` is a new feature that uses the
capability information and encodes Unicode automatically
with the correct code page while sending also the
code page change commands.
The license of the project has been changed to MIT
in accordance with its contributors.
The changes listed here are a summary of the changes
of the previous alpha releases. For details please
read the changelog of the alpha releases.
