reading this printer's manual i think there are settings that can be tweaked for it to look better but i'm using a python library that kinda makes me just
write my own library from scratch
it's eeehhhh
for one i already had to go through lengths to update the printer library from python2 to python3...
it's fully functional now, but
it could be better
and my way of making things better is just. scrap it and do it again from scratch
here's my fork of the library, updated for python 3:
