NAME

       foo2xqx-wrapper - Convert Postscript into a XQX printer stream

SYNOPSIS

       foo2xqx-wrapper [options] [ps-file]

DESCRIPTION

       foo2xqx-wrapper  is  a Foomatic compatible printer wrapper for the foo2xqx printer driver.
       This script reads a Postscript ps-file or standard input and converts it  to  XQX  printer
       format  for driving the HP LaserJet P1005/P1006/P1007/P1008, the HP LaserJet P1505, the HP
       LaserJet P2014, the HP LaserJet M1005 MFP, the HP LaserJet M1120 MFP, the HP LaserJet  Pro
       M1132s MFP, the HP LaserJet Pro M1212nf MFP, and other XQX-based printers.

       This  script  can  be  used  in  a standalone fashion, but is intended to be called from a
       printer spooler system which uses the Foomatic printer database.

   Printer Tweaking Options
       These are the options used to customize the operation of foo2xqx for a particular printer.

       -u xoffxyoff
              Set  the offset of the start of the printable region from the upper left corner, in
              pixels [varies with paper size].  The  defaults  should  work  on  the  2200DL  and
              2300DL, and have not been tested on any other printers.

       -l xoffxyoff
              Set  the  offset of the end of the printable region from the lower right corner, in
              pixels [varies with paper size].  The  defaults  should  work  on  the  2200DL  and
              2300DL, and have not been tested on any other printers.

       -L mask
              Send  the  logical  clipping  values  from  -u/-l in the ZjStream.  foo2xqx-wrapper
              always runs Ghostscript with the ideal page dimensions, so that the  scale  of  the
              image  is  correct,  regardless whether or not the printer has unprintable regions.
              This option is used to move the position of the clipped  image  back  to  where  it
              belongs on the page.  The default is to send the amount which was clipped by -u and
              -l, and should be good in most cases.

              0   don't send any logical clipping amounts
              1   only send Y clipping amount
              2   only send X clipping amount
              3   send both X and Y clipping amounts

   Debugging Options
       These options are used for debugging foo2xqx and its wrapper.

       -D level
              Set Debug level [0].

EXAMPLES

       Create a monochrome ZjStream from a Postscript document, examine it,  and  then  print  it
       using a RAW print queue:

              foo2xqx-wrapper testpage.ps > testpage.xqx
              xqxdecode < testpage.xqx
              lpr -P raw testpage.xqx
