NAME
foo2hp - Convert Ghostscript pbmraw or bitcmyk format into a ZJS printer stream
SYNOPSIS
foo2hp [options] <pbmraw-file >zjs-file
foo2hp [options] <bitcmyk-file >zjs-file
foo2hp [options] <cups-file >zjs-file
DESCRIPTION
foo2hp converts Ghostscript pbmraw, bitcmyk, or cups output formats to monochrome or color
ZJS streams, for driving the Hewlett-Packard 2600n color laser printer and other
Zenographics-based printers.
COMMAND LINE OPTIONS

These are the options used to select the parameters of a print job that are usually
controlled on a per job basis.
-b bits
Bits per plane if autodetect doesn't work (1 or 2) [1].
-c Force color mode if autodetect doesn't work.
-d duplex
Duplex code to send to printer [1].
│ │ │
│1 off │ 2 long edge │ 3 short edge
-g xpixxypix
Set page dimensions in pixels [10200x6600].
-m media
Media code to send to printer [1].

-n copies
Number of copies [1].

Set device resolution in pixels/inch [600x600].

-t Draft mode. Every other pixel is white.
-J filename
Filename string to send to printer.
-U username
Username string to send to printer.
Printer Tweaking Options
These are the options used to customize the operation of foo2hp for a particular printer.
-u xoffxyoff
Set the offset of the start of the printable region from the upper left corner, in
pixels [0x0].
-l xoffxyoff
Set the offset of the end of the printable region from the lower right corner, in
pixels [0x0].
-L mask
Send logical clipping amounts implied by -u/-l in the ZjStream [3].
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
-O c,m,y,k
Alignment of CMYK in rows. The default is 0,0,0,0.
-P Do not send START_PLANE codes on monochrome output. May be needed by some black
and white only printers, such as the HP LaserJet 1000.
-A AllIsBlack: convert C=1,M=1,Y=1 to just K=1. Works with bitcmyk input only.
-B BlackClears: K=1 forces C,M,Y to 0. Works with bitcmyk input only.
-X padlen
Add extra zero padding to the end of BID segments. The default is 16 bytes.
Debugging Options
These options are used for debugging foo2hp.
-S plane
Output just a single color plane from a color print and print it on the black
plane. The default is to output all color planes.
1 Cyan
2 Magenta
3 Yellow
4 Black
-D level
Set Debug level [0].
EXAMPLES
Create a black and white ZJS stream:
gs -q -dBATCH -dSAFER -dQUIET -dNOPAUSE
-sPAPERSIZE=letter -r600x600 -sDEVICE=pbmraw
-sOutputFile=- - < testpage.ps
| foo2hp -r600x600 -g5100x6600 -p1 >testpage.zm
Create a color ZJS stream:
gs -q -dBATCH -dSAFER -dQUIET -dNOPAUSE
-sPAPERSIZE=letter -g5100x6600 -r600x600 -sDEVICE=bitcmyk
-sOutputFile=- - < testpage.ps
| foo2hp -r600x600 -g5100x6600 -p1 >testpage.zc
