This reduces the sketch size by 26 bytes: saving 6 bytes by changing printerType, 6 bytes by changing sketchVersion and 14 bytes by changing host.

This seems like a Good Thing but I wanted to check that this change isn't likely to introduce some crazy behaviour.

I don't know why the compiler is doing a better job with array-style strings than pointer ones, but I'm completely satisfied that they're equivalent. Merged!
