[jira] [Comment Edited] (PDFBOX-4435) Poor quality printing of PDF
label
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-4435?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16746372#comment-16746372 ]

Thanks for the reply [~tilman].
Would any of the above affect strokes?
I ask as the entire label prints this way not just the QR code, you can see the stroked lines and text in the images differ between v1.8 and v2 also.

> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Rendering
> Affects Versions: 2.0.3, 2.0.13, 2.0.14
> Environment: Lubuntu 16.04, GK420d printer, CL-S400DT(Z) printer

> Hello,
> I'm experiencing poor quality printing of PDF courier labels with PDFBox when printing from the command line with the following command:
> {noformat}
> java -jar pdfbox-app-*.jar PrintPDF label.pdf
> {noformat}
> This makes scanning the QR code on these labels troublesome.
> I've tried versions 2.0.3, 2.0.13, 2.0.14 (SNAPSHOT) and all produce the same quality issue. Interestingly version 1.8.16 does not appear to suffer from this issue.
> I have tried 2 different thermal printers, a GK420d and a CITIZEN CL-S400DT(Z) and both output the same.
> When printing the label directly from the GNOME document viewer (Evince) the label prints clearly on both printers.
> Please find examples of these labels attached.
> Can anything be done to prevent these quality issues?
> Thanks,
> David
