    This is the same e-ink device I believe that's in the Pimoroni Inky Impression.

    I've written a Python program that anecdotally fixes the bias caused by the display for blues and greens, and dithers using an Atkinson dither. The code is based on some older Java implementation I wrote, but this is more succinct (and has a colour fix) if you are considering a port to C (entry point diffuse_image()):

    The fix is to define the ink's blue as a slightly different hue than the device specifications, which tends to over emphasise it - improving it - when it comes to shades like royal blue (which the display can't achieve).
