The image argument should be a PNG/GIF/JPEG image file.
For the best results, provide it in the right pixel dimensions (suiting the chosen `--label-size`).
Here is the output of `brother_ql_info list-label-sizes` listing the available options for `--label-size`:
Supported label sizes:

For the best results, use image files with the matching pixel dimensions. Die-cut labels have to be in the exact pixel dimensions stated above. For endless label rolls, you can provide image files with a pixel width as stated above. If you provide a file with different dimensions when creating an endless label file, it will be scaled to fit the width.
