rr_n {.nr rr_n 0 1 foo2slx-wrapper - Convert Postscript
into a SLX printer stream foo2slx-wrapper [options]
[ps-file] foo2slx-wrapper is a Foomatic compatible printer
wrapper for the foo2slx printer driver. This script reads a Postscript
ps-file or standard input and converts it to Software Imaging K.K. SLX
printer format for driving the Lexmark C500 network color laser printer and
other SLX-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.
These are the options used to select the parameters of a print job that are
usually controlled on a per job basis.
Create a color ZjStream stream from a Postscript document:

- -n copies
- Number of copies [1].
- -r xresxyres

- Print in N-up. Requires the psutils package.
- -o orient
- Orientation used for N-up.
Portrait -op (normal) Landscape -ol (rotated 90 degrees anticlockwise) Seascape -os (rotated 90 degrees clockwise)
- -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. foo2slx-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
- -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:
- -I intent
- Select profile intent from the ICM file. 0=Perceptual, 1=Colorimetric, 2=Saturation, 3=Absolute. Default is 0 (perceptual). These options are used for debugging foo2slx 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].
