brother-escp's Issues

Supported character size

Why is 48 the max size? I'd like to have a larger character size, maybe 64

about ESC/P

this is the only way I know to reach you.

I need to know a few things about ESC/P. Brother tech support won't provide anything, and the community forum seems to be a ghost town, but you obviously know how to work with it.
