 | `image`      | Image file to display. Any image type supported by the Python PIL library should work.                                                                                                                                                | N/A     | Yes      |
 | `mode`       | Display mode, corresponding to the `display_XXX` method on the `epd` object.<br>`FAST` - uses `display_Fast` for a complete screen refresh.<br>`PARTIAL` - uses `display_Partial` for incremental updates (which may cause ghosting). | `FAST`  | No       |
+| `dither`     | Whether to enable ditering when converting image to mono chromatic. `true` or `1` to enable.                                                                                                                                          | `true`  | No       |
 | `resize`     | `FIT` Resize keeping aspect ratio, without cropping<br>`CROP` Resize keeping aspect ratio, with cropping<br>`STRETCH` fill display, ignoring aspect ratio<br>`NONE` Display without any scaling, pixels drawn 1:1.                    | `FIT`   | No       |
 | `rotate`     | Number of degrees to rotate counter-clockwise, supports increments of 90 degrees.                                                                                                                                                     | 0       | No       |
 | `background` | Background colour to use if the image doesn't fill the display. Either `WHITE` or `BLACK`.                                                                                                                                            | `WHITE` | No       |
