foo2slx − Convert Ghostscript pbmraw or bitcmyk format into a SLX printer stream
foo2slx [options] <pbmraw-file >slx-file
foo2slx [options] <bitcmyk-file >slx-file
foo2slx [options] <pksmraw-file >slx-file
foo2slx converts Ghostscript pbmraw, bitcmyk, or pksmraw output formats to monochrome or color SLX streams, for driving the Lexmark C500 network color laser printer and other SLZ-based printers. The SLX stream is a variant of ZjStream produced by Software Imaging K.K.

Options
These are the options used to select the parameters of a
print job that are usually controlled on a per job
basis.
−c |
Force color mode if autodetect doesn’t work. |
−g xpixxypix
Set page dimensions in pixels [10200x6600].
−m media
Media code to send to printer [0].
−p paper
Paper code to send to printer [6].
−n copies
Number of copies [1].
−r xresxyres
Set device resolution in pixels/inch [1200x600].
−s source
Source (InputSlot) code to send to printer [0].
Printer
Tweaking Options
These are the options used to customize the operation of
foo2slx for a particular printer.
−u xoffxyoff
Set the offset of the start of the printable region from the upper left corner, in pixels [0x0].
−l xoffxyoff
Set the offset of the end of the printable region from the lower right corner, in pixels [0x0].
−L mask
Send logical clipping amounts implied by -u/-l in the ZjStream [3].
−A |
AllIsBlack: convert C=1,M=1,Y=1 to just K=1. Works with bitcmyk input only. | ||
−B |
BlackClears: K=1 forces C,M,Y to 0. Works with bitcmyk input only. |
Debugging
Options
These options are used for debugging foo2slx.
−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.
−D level
Set Debug level [0].
Create a black and white SLX stream:
gs -q -dBATCH
-dSAFER -dQUIET -dNOPAUSE
-sPAPERSIZE=letter -r1200x600 -sDEVICE=pbmraw
-sOutputFile=- - < testpage.ps
| foo2slx -r1200x600 -g10200x6600 -p1 >testpage.zm
Create a color SLX stream:
gs -q -dBATCH
-dSAFER -dQUIET -dNOPAUSE
-sPAPERSIZE=letter -g10200x6600 -r1200x600 -sDEVICE=bitcmyk
-sOutputFile=- - < testpage.ps
| foo2slx -r1200x600 -g10200x6600 -p1 >testpage.zc
