NAME

       foo2hiperc-wrapper - Convert Postscript into a HIPERC printer stream

SYNOPSIS

       foo2hiperc-wrapper [options] [ps-file]

DESCRIPTION

       foo2hiperc-wrapper  is  a Foomatic compatible printer wrapper for the foo2hiperc printer driver.  This script reads a Postscript ps-file or
       standard input and converts it to the Oki HIPERC printer format for driving the Oki C310dn, C3100, C3200, C3300n, C3400n,  C5100n,  C5500n,
       C5600n and the C5800n HIPERC 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.

       -n copies
	      Number of copies [1].

       -r xresxyres
	      Set device resolution in pixels/inch [600x600].

       -s source
	      Source (Input Slot) code to send to printer [0].

   Printer Tweaking Options
       These are the options used to customize the operation of foo2hiperc 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 HIPERC stream.  foo2hiperc-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 compressed
	      Use uncompressed (0) or compressed (1) JBIG data.

   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 exam-
	      ple, 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).

   Debugging Options
       These options are used for debugging foo2hiperc 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 HIPERC stream from a Postscript document, examine it, and then print it using nc(1) or netcat(1):

	      foo2hiperc-wrapper testpage.ps > testpage.hc
	      hipercdecode < testpage.hc
	      nc 192.168.1.NNN 9100 < testpage.hc

       Create a color HIPERC stream from a Postscript document:

	      foo2hiperc-wrapper -c testpage.ps > testpage.hc
