After generating the related printer configuration, *epson_print_conf.py* shall be manually edited to copy/paste the output of *parse_devices.py* within its PRINTER_CONFIG dictionary.
The `-m` option is mandatory and is used to filter the printer model in scope. If the produced output is not referred to the target model, use part of the model name as a filter (e.g., only the digits, like `parse_devices.py -m 315`) and select the appropriate model from the output.

Program usage:
```
python3 parse_devices.py [-h] -m PRINTER_MODEL [-d] [-t] [-v] [-f] [-e] [-c CONFIG_FILE]
python3 parse_devices.py [-h] -m PRINTER_MODEL [-l LINE_LENGTH] [-i] [-d] [-t] [-v] [-f] [-e] [-c CONFIG_FILE]
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-m PRINTER_MODEL, --model PRINTER_MODEL
Printer model. Example: -m XP-205
-l LINE_LENGTH, --line LINE_LENGTH
Set line length of the output (default: 120)
-i, --indent Indent output of 4 spaces
-d, --debug Print debug information
-t, --traverse Traverse the XML, dumping content related to the printer model
-v, --verbose Print verbose information
