foo2oak-wrapper(1)                                          foo2oak-wrapper(1)






NAME

       foo2oak-wrapper - Convert Postscript into an OAKT printer stream


SYNOPSIS

       foo2oak-wrapper [options] [ps-file]


DESCRIPTION

       foo2oak-wrapper  is  a  Foomatic  compatible  printer  wrapper  for the
       foo2oak printer driver.  This script  reads  a  Postscript  ps-file  or
       standard  input  and  converts it to Oak Technology OAKT printer format
       for driving the HP Color LaserJet 1500 laser printer  and  other  OAKT-
       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.

       -s source
              Source (Input Slot) code to send to printer [7].
              |          |

              |7   auto  |

       -2     Print in 2-up.  Requires the psutils package.

       -4     Print in 4-up.  Requires the psutils package.

   Printer Tweaking Options
       These are the options used to customize the operation of foo2oak 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].   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 OAKT stream.
              foo2oak-wrapper always runs  Ghostscript  with  the  ideal  page
              dimensions,  so  that the scale of the image is correct, regard-
              less 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

   Color Tweaking Options
       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

   Debugging Options
       These options are used for debugging foo2oak 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].



EXAMPLES

       Create a monochrome OAKT stream from a Postscript document, examine it,
       and then print it using a RAW print queue:

              foo2oak-wrapper testpage.ps > testpage.oak
              oakdecode < testpage.oak
              lpr -P raw testpage.oak

       Create a color OAKT stream from a Postscript document:

              foo2oak-wrapper -c testpage.ps > testpage.oak
