Public bug reported:
cups encode.c treats parameter ppi as an integer, but it should be a
string.
the image filter drivers expect the form ppi=300x600
to specify source image dpi for images where it is asymmetric.
I encountered this issue trying to print full-sized images without scaling on a
dymo 450 label printer.
This bug causes images to print across 2 labels when trying to use the
300x600dpi graphics mode.
This should print a single label:
lpr -o ppi=300x600 -o scaling=0 -o PageSize=w167h288 -o PageRegion=w167h288 -o
Resolution=300x600dpi -o DymoHalftoning=Default -o DymoPrintDensity=Medium -o
DymoPrintQuality=Graphics -o MediaDimensions=w167h288
~/Desktop/test_Graphics_portrait.png
where the png is a 664*2224 image without any dpi metadata.
Instead the ppi option gets sanitized to 300, and the image gets printed across
2 labels.
