I wonder how hard it is to make a fake USB printer.
Like, a printer that takes any printout and goes "yep, that printed just fine" but nothing ever comes out anywhere

@foone Can it at least throw a message about an expired subscription or lack of cyan, to make it more realistic?

Properly photographing a 3.5" floppy disk for archival is annoyingly complicated. The label has THREE sides!

I've already built an automated system to take a picture of the front of a disk, but really I need to take THREE photos if I want to get the whole thing.

That means either three cameras or I need to rotate the disk 90° and then 180°, which is going to really stress the limits of my mechanical engineering skills.

@foone May I suggest a PCB holder that is commonly used for soldering? That should work with the size of a floppy disk.. and I'm sure you could attach a servo to the axis to spin it automatically.
