Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-4435:
-----------------------------------------
Targeting to 2.0.14 because this MUST be fixed. Initially I thought "user
error, don't care much" but now I see this differently, especially after
reading the linked issues.

> 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
