Two things were costing sharpness on the Dymo. Labels were rendered at
the tape printer's 313dpi and resampled to 300, softening every letter;
they are now drawn at the target resolution. And the PDF embedded a JPEG,
whose ringing around 2mm text the thermal printer turned to mush - the
pages are now bitonal, which Pillow writes as lossless CCITT G4 at about
3KB a page instead of 45KB.
The new Ink setting decides how the page is reduced: threshold (crisp
text), Floyd-Steinberg (photos) or leave it in colour.
