Despite I know I bought a label/sticker printer, I still want it to amaze me by letting it prints something with super precision.

But the fact is no. It's just a label printer, and it can only print labels.

I thought I can print grey pictures with it.

(During my testing, I found that this printer really struggled at control the temperature. It has some degrees of print density, but definitely can't do the gray picture.)

@skyblond So it is a thermal printer? I never found them to be that precise.

@trinsec Yes. I got a commercial thermal printer before, but it didn't use a standard interface, or offer any SDK. So I bought this one. Also not that precise.

However, the old one managed to have 3 levels of density control, where you can clearly tell the black is different. This one claims 15 levels, but as far as I can tell, only ordinary black and overheated black.

I generally don't think thermal printers can print a decent picture😂
