The rundown you posted was good, but I ran into an issue with KFX-ZIP files, which wasn't covered. KFX is the newer DRM container for Kindles after a certain generation. This guide helped me troubleshoot my issue. After configuring my plugins properly via following those instructions, it fixed the issue.
I then had to re-download all of the cover art in color, because the KFX file 'optimizes' for your device, so all art and illustrations became black and white. This would be a huge issue for anyone who is thinking of purchasing graphic novels or comics from Amazon.
I used the transfer-from-eink-Kindle method, but I'll be ditching the Kindle because of this change. Making me do this much work to own my book instead of renting it from an unethical company is not worth it.
