Is it possible to control the size, margins, and position of an image? about node-thermal-printer HOT 3 OPEN

I don't think you can with this package.

You can check out the issue I posted few days ago #249. In my case I had to print images in 580px width in order of making the image to take full width of the paper (80mm) on my printer as I didn't try other printers yet.

Try to print images that has 580px width and see if it's common across printers or not. If it worked then you have to use some node.js package to upscale/downscale images to 580px width before printing it.

I would be happy if you let me know how did it go.

Good luck.

I solved it in a similar way. I upscaled by intercepting the image buffer, changing the width, and generating a new buffer for printing. That way, I got the result I needed in this case. The issue is that depending on the desired size, the final printing speed is significantly impacted, making the process slower.

But I miss having a better way to handle printing, including positioning, scaling, or even controlling print margins.

changing the width

Good job you made it work. Would you please help me with the image width that was enough to make the image occupy all width of the paper?
