foo2ddst - Convert Ghostscript pbmraw into a DDST printer stream

foo2ddst [options] <pbmraw-file >ddst-file

foo2ddst converts Ghostscript pbmraw to monochrome DDST streams, for driving the Ricoh Aficio SP 112, the Ricoh Aficio SP 201, and other DDST-based printers.

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 foo2ddst for a particular printer.

Set the offset of the start of the printable region from the upper left corner, in pixels [0x0].
Set the offset of the end of the printable region from the lower right corner, in pixels [0x0].
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
AllIsBlack: convert C=1,M=1,Y=1 to just K=1. Works with bitcmyk input only.
BlackClears: K=1 forces C,M,Y to 0. Works with bitcmyk input only.

These options are used for debugging foo2ddst.

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
Set Debug level [0].

Create a black and white DDST stream:

gs -q -dBATCH -dSAFER -dQUIET -dNOPAUSE  


    -sPAPERSIZE=letter -r1200x600 -sDEVICE=pbmraw  


    -sOutputFile=- - < testpage.ps  
| foo2ddst -r1200x600 -g10200x6600 -p1 >testpage.zm
