Instead of forcing a prefix-suffix pattern that doesn't really fit, just call it "printing". --94eb2c18697684d49c0549158871 Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

Maybe we can shoot for "app-print" .. its not really a system pac= kage
any more than a networking one, nor a (multi-)media package per-se (cue
bikeshed on what 'media' means) .. so perhaps just 'app-print&#= 39; or
'app-printing' .. I dunno ..

There is no r= equirement for category names to be x-y. Instead of forcing a prefix-suffix pattern that doesn't really fit, just call it "pr= inting".
