pcl3opts

PCL3OPTS(1)						      General Commands Manual						       PCL3OPTS(1)

NAME

       pcl3opts -- determine options for the ghostscript driver pcl3 from a PCL-3+ file

SYNOPSIS

       pcl3opts [-o output_file]  [input_file ...]

DESCRIPTION

       The  command  pcl3opts  is  intended  to help in determining which options one should use when calling ghostscript using pcl3 for driving a
       PCL-3+ printer.	It analyzes one or more PCL input_files and issues on the output_file its best guess as to which options one should  spec-
       ify in order to produce files using a similar configuration.  The default output_file is standard output.  If no input_files are specified,
       the command reads from standard input.

       This command is mostly of interest if you have access to PCL files generated by software provided by the printer's manufacturer, for  exam-
       ple if you have a manufacturer-supplied Microsoft Windows driver for your printer.  In that case you can generate a few files under Windows
       using different settings and let pcl3opts examine them.

LIMITATIONS

       Note that pcl3opts cannot guarantee that the collection of options it proposes leads to a file which is understood by the printer.  It  can
       merely provide a best guess.

       In  addition,  some settings require interpretation of the page contents in order to properly translate them into options for pcl3 and some
       cannot reliably be derived from a PCL file at all.  Finding good values for these  parameters  is  beyond  pcl3opts's  capabilities.   This
       includes LeadingEdge, SendBlackLast, Tumble and the distinction between the colour models CMY+K and CMYK.
