Postscript into a QPDL printer stream
foo2qpdl-wrapper [
options]
[
ps-file]
foo2qpdl-wrapper is a Foomatic compatible printer
wrapper for the
foo2qpdl printer driver. This script reads a Postscript
ps-file or standard input and converts it to Samsung/Xerox QPDL printer
format for driving the Samsung CLP-300, CLX-2160, CLX-3160, CLP-315, CLX-3175,
CLP-600, CLP-610, and Xerox Phaser 6110 QPDL 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.

These are the options used to customize the operation of foo2qpdl 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].
- -l xoffxyoff
- Set the offset of the end of the printable region from the
lower right corner, in pixels [varies with paper size].
- -L mask
- Send the logical clipping values from -u/-l in the QPDL
stream. foo2qpdl-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 |
- -z model
- Printer model. Model 0 is the default.

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). These
options are used for debugging foo2qpdl 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.

Create a monochrome QPDL stream from a Postscript document, examine it, and
then print it using a RAW print queue:
foo2qpdl-wrapper testpage.ps > testpage.zm
qpdldecode < testpage.zm
lpr -P raw testpage.zm
Create a color QPDL stream from a Postscript document:
foo2qpdl-wrapper -c testpage.ps > testpage.zc
