This program is part of
.BR "Netpbm" (1)\c
\&.
.PP
\fBpbmtoibm23xx\fP reads one or more PBM files as input and
writes an IBM 23XX printer command stream to generate all the images in

\&), \fBpbmtoibm23xx\fP recognizes the following
command line options:


.TP
\fB-xres=\fP\fIdpi\fP
This option specifies the horizontal resolution in dots per inch.
Valid values are 60, 120, and 240.
.sp
This option is mandatory.

.TP
\fB-yres=\fP\fIdpi\fP
This option specifies the vertical resolution in dots per inch.
Valid values are 60, 120, and 240.
.sp

.TP
\fB-slow\fP
Use the slower printing mode where two modes with the same resolution
are available.  This usually produces better quality prints.  This
affects only modes with horizontal resolution 120, but might affect
other modes in future versions of the program.
     


.UN limitations
