Example PNG & D110 Support

[alexmbird]

I'm trying this on my brand new D110 with the attached image. Niimprint connects to the printer and it feeds a label through, but no image is shown. The label remains completely white.

Using black text on a transparent PNG was a total guess. I've also tried white text on transparent background, and black text on white background, but the result is the same.

Can you add a little documentation for what dimensions/content are expected and maybe a couple of example images?

Embarrassing admission time: turns out I had the reel loaded the wrong way up :) With this rookie error corrected I find regular black text on a white background prints well.

Here's a couple of requests:

• A couple of example PNGs and a line in the readme suggesting dimensions
• Autodetect the orientation of the image from whichever axis is 96 pixels wide, rotating if necessary before sending to the printer. That'll save a few seconds doing it manually in Gimp.

Thanks for the great work - now I can use my D110 without installing that creepy Android app.

Hi @alexmbird what OS did you run this on? I'm trying to connect from an RPi and am getting errors. Would love to get some help!

Hi @drmattyg. This was a recent Ubuntu running on x86.
