PrinterRead

Full representation of a Printer row, augmented with the paused flag.

paused is joined from the printer_state table; it defaults to False for printers whose state row was not yet created (safe — the DB lifespan helper creates state rows at startup, so this only matters in tests or during the very first boot).
