Show HN: I vibe-coded a working macOS driver for an obsolete laser engraver

The Epilog Zing lasers were 50w desktop industrial lasers from circa 2010. They never had support outside of windows.

This was based off of LibLaserCut which is a Java project that reverse engineered these machine's protocols. This is a CUPS driver implemented in Swift and C.

Maybe this is a small example of AI doing something positive, like breathing new life into old machines :)
