dd -- Flip the image data sent to printer, so that after printing both your picture and the printer itself faces upward, natually. --

dt -- Strength --
|

dd -- tell the printer how deep to print those resulting pixels, i.e. the thermal energy used; --

dt -- Quality --
|
||
dd -- indeed affect paper feeding speed, lower “Quality” means higher speed printing but unstable heating & visual quality. --

h3 -- “Picture”, “Pattern”, and “Text” Process --
|
||
p -- Since the printer can only print black pixels (not even gray), ordinary pictures should be specifically processed with a algorithm that suits its use best. --
|

p -- Pictures are first processed to grayscale (in a natual-for-eyes way), then processed as: --

dt -- Pattern --
|

dl -
|

dt -- Text --
|

dd -- simply determine black or white per-pixel by brightness, good for snapshots of text. --
