I’m printing a file that fits on one single A4 page. The original BMP can be decoded. The printed version looks good.
However, when decoding after scanning, I hit Page label is not readable
Any idea to fix that?
Thanks!

When I and @suhrke were first testing scanning and decoding, we did so on an inkjet printer, which has “limits” such as splashing the ink and distorting any fine quality scanning/decoding may have required.
If the original BMP can be decoded, then you could try to adjust the print and scan settings.

Thanks for your answer. After trial-and-error sessions with the printer and scanner settings, it still does not work.
Any idea on how to reduce the point density (fewer rows, fewer columns)?
Thanks!

By changing the DPI with paperback-cli --encode -d XXX, I make good progress.
ngood: 625
nbad: 6
nsuper: 13

Unrecoverable errors on page, please scan it again
Once I have access to a better printer, I’ll try again.
Thanks a lot!

You could try to reduce the dots per inch. It does mean the paper will fit less data on it.
