What's new

v0.6.3.0Jan 19, 2024

Now you can test an unknown device in CLI interface, with -u. Also fixed “Test unknown device” usability of web side.
Now it will prompt to select a device once many are found (on both Web & CLI.) CLI side can always use the first device found with -0.
Will connect to device only if everything is ok, saving time waste by connecting & disconnecting without doing anything. Hint for missing ImageMagick where it is needed (Thanks #59)
Adjusted default printing configurations & behavior:
4 more “Quality” by default, a bit slower printing but better quality, Adjust Brightness slide by step of 1/256, smoother, Adjust Strength slide by step of 16/256, more significant to demonstrate what it does Added model MX08(C15) (#47) Updated about page. Other fixes and tweaks.
PF2 font bundle
Edit: the “bare” bundle is broken, hence removed, just clone the repository instead
