Short update: tried to print an image, printer only printed the first sixth or so of the image itself. I'm trying to understand if it is an issue with CUPS, the driver or the Raspberry PI Zero W.

Duplicate of #63

@matteocalisti, What resolution are you printing at? Another (Raspberry Pi Zero) user was having issues at 1200HQ but was able to successfully print at 600 DPI.

@QORTEC text documents and pdfs print correctly at 300 and 600 dpi, print only the first few lines on 1200HQ. Images will not print correctly at any resolution, but more of the image is printed at lower resolution (eg 1200HQ just ~2cm, 600dpi about ~4cm and 300dpi ~8cm). Looks like doubling the dpi halves the printed image.

Toner saving on or off doesn't change the print result.

I'm using a JPEG 1080x1920 for the test print, maybe the image is too big?
