Cleanup + mostly all different paper types

[soundstorm]

Did a cleanup on the indentation and added all the different paper types (Closes #3). Option to increase print quality instead of print speed (default now switched; compile time option).

Wow amazing! I'll try to test this tonight. The timing of this and the fact that your profile says "never sleeping" makes me think that you might be using this for Covid-19 related sample tracking?

[soundstorm]

In Germany it was still regular daytime, but worked quite longer than I wanted. Just needed a better print quality for barcodes, which escalated a bit. I also tested different drivers like 500, 570, 700, ... to check if there are other print options and bit-changes, but couldn't find any. Still wondering about the bits in the F1 titled param. For me it always reported 0x8E or with higher print quality 0xCE, while your code says 0x0E for 29x90mm and 0xA6 for endless paper. But no, no Covid tracking :)

I just tested on a QL-700 with 29x90 paper and that works and yes greatly increased print quality! I need to go dig up some endless paper but do you know if this fixes the issue where the minimum length you can print on the endless paper is 90 mm?

Oh, and for some reason I had a different copy of this repo elsewhere but the only real changes were to the readme file. One change though was adding the license which per original author was GPLv3. Are you ok to license your additions as such?

[soundstorm]

No problem regarding the license :)

I tested quiet many different lengths with my socket solution - these are the outputs, I haven't tested longer prints in last time, but I think I was successful more than once. Will check that again. Here are my results :)

Thanks! I tested the 62 mm endless paper with very short prints and it works! (hard to get the printed label out of the printer though)

Two questions:

• Do you know how to change/disable the margins at the beginning and end of the print?
• Do you have a list of labels you've actually tested printing on?

[soundstorm]

Margin is even in the original P-touch tool set to minimum 3mm or which margins?

I still have 23x90 and 62x100 here, just printing on 62mm endless I'll check what happens if you print larger images than the mediatype is able to show, so maybe a restriction of print size is necessary.
