NAME

       foo2zjs-wrapper - Convert Postscript into a ZJS printer stream

SYNOPSIS

       foo2zjs-wrapper [options] [ps-file]

DESCRIPTION

       foo2zjs-wrapper  is  a  Foomatic  compatible printer wrapper for the foo2zjs printer driver.  This script
       reads a Postscript ps-file or standard input and converts it to Zenographics ZjStream printer format  for
       driving the Minolta/QMS 2300 DL network color laser printer and other Zenographics-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.

       -n copies
              Number of copies [1].

       -r xresxyres
              Set device resolution in pixels/inch [1200x600].

       -s source
              Source (Input Slot) code to send to printer [7].
              │          │
              │1   upper │ 4   manual
              │2   lower │ 7   auto

       -t     Draft mode.  Every other pixel is white.

       -T density
              Print density (1-5).  The default is 3 (medium).

       -2 -3 -4 -5 -6 -8 -9 -10 -12 -14 -15 -16 -18
              Print in N-up.  Requires the psutils package.

       -o orient
              Orientation used for N-up.

              Portrait    -op   (normal)

              Seascape    -os   (rotated 90 degrees clockwise)

   Printer Tweaking Options
       These are the options used to customize the operation of foo2zjs 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.  foo2zjs-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

       -P     Do  not  send  START_PLANE  codes  on  monochrome  output.   May be needed by some monochrome-only
              printers, such as the HP LaserJet 1000.

       -X padlen
              Add extra zero padding to the end of BID segments.  The default is 16 bytes.  Padding 16 bytes  of
              zeroes is needed for older ZjStream printers, such as the Minolta 2200DL and HP LaserJet 1000, and
              seems harmless to newer ones, such as the Minolta 2300DL.  So the default should be good  for  all
              cases.

       -z model
              Model. Default is 0.

              0   KM 2300DL / HP 1000 / HP 1005
              1   HP 1018 / HP 1020 / HP 1022
              2   HP Pro P1102 / P1566 / P1606dn
              3   HP Pro CP1025

   Color Tweaking Options
       These  are the options used to control the quality of color output.  Color correction is currently a WORK
       IN PROGRESS.

       -g gsopts
              Additional options to pass to Ghostscript, such as  -g“-dDITHERPPI=nnn”,  etc.   This  option  may
              appear more than once.

       -G profile.icm
              Convert  profile.icm  to  a  Postscript  color rendering dictionary (CRD) using foo2zjs-icc2ps and
              adjust the printer colors by using the Postscript setcolorrendering operator.  (WORK IN PROGRESS).

       -G gamma-file.ps
              Prepend  gamma-file.ps  to  the  Postscript  input  to  perform   color   correction   using   the
              setcolortransfer Postscript operator.  For example, the file might contain:
              {0.333 exp} {0.333 exp} {0.333 exp} {0.333 exp} setcolortransfer

       -I intent
              Select  profile intent from the ICM file.  0=Perceptual, 1=Colorimetric, 2=Saturation, 3=Absolute.
              Default is 0 (perceptual).

   Debugging Options
       These options are used for debugging foo2zjs and its wrapper.

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

              foo2zjs-wrapper testpage.ps > testpage.zm
              zjsdecode < testpage.zm
              lpr -P raw testpage.zm

       Create a color ZjStream stream from a Postscript document:

              foo2zjs-wrapper -c testpage.ps > testpage.zc
