RE: [PATCH] nmap-service-probes: Misc database corrections, printer additions

I changed the probe in my script to end w/ "\n" instead of "\r\n" as it seems to elicit a better response from certain 
printers. I found that certain printers that appeared non-responsive will get a response if I wait long enough. The 
printer I was testing against seems to require 12 seconds to respond to @PJL INFO STATUS and @PJL INFO ID probes via 
NSE but will do so in under 3 seconds via ncat. 

Anyway, latest version of script changes probe as stated above and sets timeout to 12000 (12 seconds). 
I was thinking maybe make the timeout value an optional argument that can be passed in via --script-args and default it 
down to 2 or 3 seconds. Anyone like/dislike that idea?
