  Any advice on getting raw prints out of this

Not raw, but I start up scribus and put the png image in a graphic box,
then scale it.

I bet imagemagick could be use to script a png file with the embedded print 
scale feature.  In imagemagick convert, it makes sense to convert a .png to a 
.png.  You give it the command line options to change something like scale or 
page size (for a format that has page size).
