psmandup − print duplex on non duplex printers
psmandup FILE
Tries to produce a version of the PostScript FILE to print in manual Duplex.
−h, −−help
display this help and exit
−v, −−version
display version information and exit
−q, −−quiet
don’t print informational messages
−o, −−output=FILE
save result in FILE. If FILE is ’-’, send to stdout
−n, −−no−fix
don’t call fixps to fix PS problems in FILE
−f, −−front
output only the front pages (recto) on the regular tray
−b, −−back
output only the back pages (verso) on the manual feed tray
Produced output is meant for PS level 2 printers which don’t support Duplex printing, but support Manual Feed. Once the first set of pages is printed (odd pages), manual feed is asked: introduce the odd pages to print the even pages on the other side.
Because there is usually a short time out for manually fed jobs, you should really be next to the printer. If ever the time out expired, use the option −b to send only the missing part.
Environment variables FIXPS, PSSELECT and PSSET, if defined, are used to find the tools.
