Doesn't seem to require a cryptographically random number here.  In
fact, I'm not even sure it needs to be a freshly-random number each
time; perhaps '1' is sufficient.  It's just for a transaction ID which
is never checked as far as I can tell.

Should I patch hplip to use '1' here instead of random.randint() do you
think?
