      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
