  It is described in the assignment that the printer CPU does not have huge
  memory and they are slow. Which of these should be given more importance?

Both

  Would it be a good idea to store intermediate results (such as slope of
  the line) for each input, or is it better to calculate these values again and
  again on the fly?

I don't know; what do you think? How would each affect the running time and
space?

  When we map the points to pixel coordinates and also when the X coordinate is
  calculated for a given pixel Y coordinate, is it recommended to truncate the
  coordinates or to round to the nearest integral value?

Your choice.

  Are there other bigger input files available to test the assignment?

I'll see what I can come up with.
