NAME

       ijsgutenprint - Ghostscript driver for Gutenprint

SYNOPSIS

       gs   -sDEVICE=ijs  -sIjsServer=/usr/bin/ijsgutenprint  -sDeviceManufacturer=vendor  -sDeviceModel=name  [
       -dIjsUseOutputFD ] -sIjsParams=[ key1=value1,keyn=valuen... ] [ options ] [ files ]

DESCRIPTION

       ijsgutenprint provides Ghostscript with  a  Gutenprint  driver,  supporting  all  printers  supported  by
       libgutenprint.

       NOTE:  ijsgutenprint should never be called directly.  Ghostscript will run it if the IjsServer parameter
       is set to IjsServer=ijsgutenprint when invoking the IJS driver.

       NOTE: The only supported method of running ijsgutenprint is  via  Foomatic.   Users  running  ghostscript
       directly will not be supported.  The driver name used by Foomatic is gutenprint-ijs.5.2.

OPTIONS

       ijsgutenprint  accepts  the  following  Ghostscript IJS options.  The Gutenprint-specific options are not
       documented here.

       -dIjsUseOutputFD
              This option should be specified whenever output from Ghostscript will go to stdout or into a pipe.
              It may be specified in all other cases, with only a slight performance degradation.

       -sIjsParams=Option1=Value1,Option2=Value2
              This parameter contains a single string containing a comma-separated list of sub-options.

       -sDeviceManufacturer=vendor -sDeviceModel=name
              This option must be supplied.  There is no default.  The IJS driver requires the vendor (it's part
              of the protocol), but the ijsgutenprint driver ignores it.

HISTORY

       The Ghostscript stp driver was originally written by Henryk  Richter  (buggs@comlab.uni-rostock.de),  and
       was integrated into Gutenprint during the 3.1 development series.  Gutenprint (which was named Gimp-Print
       prior to release 5.0) itself was originally written by Michael Sweet <mike@easysw.com>, who  released  up
       to   version   2.0;   Robert   Krawitz   released   version   3.0.    The   Gutenprint  development  team
       (http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net) now maintains the entire package.

       The IJS driver was originally written by Russell Lang, and incorporated into Gutenprint  (known  then  as
       Gimp-Print) in early 2002.  This driver corresponds with the IJS protocol 0.32.

       The stp driver is no longer supported as of Gutenprint 5.0.
