With update on the tags being so slow . It would be useful to have an option to simply download the raw image to HA rather than sent it to the AP . This would allow you to quickly prototype a display screen without having to wait for the tag to update.

Suggest downloading to /config/www folder ?

I have found an image file in /config/custom_components/open_epaper_link. It's A bit "hacky" but you can open it using the HA file editor or download it to your PC. Not great but much better than waiting for the tag to update.

I've just added a PR to enable the option of "dry-run" - e.g, the image file is created, but it's not sent to the AP/tag. Great for quick testing/tweaking without pushing every little change to the AP/tag.
