Suggestion: Add StarPRNT emulation for Stargraphic printers #20

Currently, Stargraphic-only models such as the TSP100 series can only accept raster printing commands.

It would be amazing if Star could support an emulation driver in iOS/Android that supports StarPRNT commands such as append, appendAlignment, enableEmphasis, etc., renders/rasterizes the text into an image in iOS memory, and outputs the raster image bytes to the device.
