I changed the Epson_Pins to 9 and the output fits on one page now. Good to know, I assumed the 24 pins setting only related to print quality.
Excellent - how about uploading some pdfs of generated images compared to the original (if you have any examples).

Here is a File I printed on My Panasonic KX-P2123 24 Pin Printer then scanned to PDF.
Here is the same printed output run through the Retro-Printer saved directly to PDF.
I am liking how clean the output from the Retro-Printer is, plus is Inkless and paperless!!
Best Regards

OK that actually produces a clearer output than the original printer which is good and is a great comparison of the graphics and text.
The text is offset on the Retro-Printer version - so it might be worth altering your default font - not sure what the default font is used by the Panasonic (possibly set via DIP switches). The fonts used by the Retro-Printer are our own design, so it may well need some tweaking
