foo2qpdl - Convert Ghostscript pbmraw or bitcmyk format into a QPDL printer stream

foo2qpdl [options] <pbmraw-file >qpdl-file

foo2qpdl [options] <bitcmyk-file >qpdl-file

foo2qpdl [options] <pksmraw-file >qpdl-file

foo2qpdl converts Ghostscript pbmraw, bitcmyk, or pksmraw output formats to monochrome or color QPDL streams, for driving the Samsung CLP-300, CLX-2160, CLP-600, CLX-3160, CLP-610 CLP-620, CLP-360, CLP-365, and the Xerox Phaser 6110 QPDL printers.

These are the options used to select the parameters of a print job that are usually controlled on a per job basis.

Force color mode if autodetect doesn't work.

These are the options used to customize the operation of foo2qpdl for a particular printer.

Color Adjust: brightness, contrast, saturation, cyan-red balance, magenta-green balance, and yellow-blue balance from 0 to 100. The default is 50,50,50,50,50,50. This only works when the -z3 (e.g. CLP-365) model is set!
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 QPDL stream [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.
Printer model. Model 0 is the default.
model Description
0 CLP-300, CLX-2160, CLX-3160
1 CLP-600
2 CLP-310, CLP-315, CLP-610, CLX-3175
3 CLP-620, CLP-360, CLP-365

These options are used for debugging foo2qpdl.

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 QPDL stream:

gs -q -dBATCH -dSAFER -dQUIET -dNOPAUSE  


    -sPAPERSIZE=letter -r1200x600 -sDEVICE=pbmraw  


    -sOutputFile=- - < testpage.ps  
| foo2qpdl -r1200x600 -g10200x6600 -p0 >testpage.zm

Create a color QPDL stream:
