4. If the manufacturer follows the industry standard, is there a need to write separate interface for each unit upgrade by manufacturer? However, if the new model includes some extra features, then interface may need to be revised and should be provided as a patch?
5. Would we need a separate driver for each brand and model of multi-function unit, or will one work for them all; either collectively or by manufacturer.
