12 foo2lava-wrapper [options] [ps-file]
13
15 foo2lava-wrapper is a Foomatic compatible printer wrapper for the
16 foo2lava printer driver. This script reads a Postscript ps-file or
17 standard input and converts it to Zenographics LAVAFLOW printer format
18 for driving the Konica Minolta magicolor 1600W color laser printer, the
19 Konica Minolta magicolor 1680MF/1690MF AIO printer, the Konica Minolta
20 magicolor 2480/2490 MF AIO printer, the Konica Minolta magicolor 2530
21 DL network color laser printer, and other Zenographics-based LAVAFLOW
22 printers.
23 This script can be used in a standalone fashion, but is intended to be
25 called from a printer spooler system which uses the Foomatic printer
26 database.

99 Printer Tweaking Options
101 These are the options used to customize the operation of foo2lava for a
102 particular printer.
103 -u xoffxyoff
105 Set the offset of the start of the printable region from the
106 upper left corner, in pixels [varies with paper size]. The
107 defaults should work on the 2200DL and 2300DL, and have not been
108 tested on any other printers.
109 -l xoffxyoff
111 Set the offset of the end of the printable region from the lower
112 right corner, in pixels [varies with paper size]. The defaults
113 should work on the 2200DL and 2300DL, and have not been tested
114 on any other printers.
115 -L mask
117 Send the logical clipping values from -u/-l in the LAVAFLOW
118 stream. foo2lava-wrapper always runs Ghostscript with the ideal
119 page dimensions, so that the scale of the image is correct,
120 regardless whether or not the printer has unprintable regions.
121 This option is used to move the position of the clipped image
122 back to where it belongs on the page. The default is to send
123 the amount which was clipped by -u and -l, and should be good in
124 most cases.
125 0 don't send any logical clipping amounts
127 1 only send Y clipping amount
128 2 only send X clipping amount
129 3 send both X and Y clipping amounts
130 -z model
132 Model. The default is [0].
133 model protocol Description
135 0 LAVAFLOW magicolor 2490 MF
136 0 LAVAFLOW magicolor 2530 DL
137 1 OPL magicolor 2480 MF
138 2 LAVAFLOW magicolor 1600W
139 2 LAVAFLOW magicolor 1680MF
140 2 LAVAFLOW magicolor 1690MF
141 Color Tweaking Options
143 These are the options used to control the quality of color output.
144 Color correction is currently a WORK IN PROGRESS.
145 -g gsopts
147 Additional options to pass to Ghostscript, such as
148 -g“-dDITHERPPI=nnn”, etc. This option may appear more than
149 once.
150 -G profile.icm
152 Convert profile.icm to a Postscript color rendering dictionary
153 (CRD) using icc2ps and adjust the printer colors by using the
154 Postscript setcolorrendering operator. (WORK IN PROGRESS).
155 -G gamma-file.ps
157 Prepend gamma-file.ps to the Postscript input to perform color
158 correction using the setcolortransfer Postscript operator. For
159 example, the file might contain:
160 {0.333 exp} {0.333 exp} {0.333 exp} {0.333 exp} setcolortransfer
161 -I intent
163 Select profile intent from the ICM file. 0=Perceptual, 1=Col‐
164 orimetric, 2=Saturation, 3=Absolute. Default is 0 (perceptual).
165 Debugging Options
167 These options are used for debugging foo2lava and its wrapper.
168 -S plane
170 Output just a single color plane from a color print and print it
171 on the black plane. The default is to output all color planes.
172 1 Cyan
174 2 Magenta
175 3 Yellow
176 4 Black
177 -D level
179 Set Debug level [0].
180
183 Create a monochrome LAVAFLOW stream from a Postscript document, examine
184 it, and then print it using a RAW print queue:
185 foo2lava-wrapper testpage.ps > testpage.zm
187 lavadecode < testpage.zm
188 lpr -P raw testpage.zm
189 Create a color LAVAFLOW stream from a Postscript document:
191 foo2lava-wrapper -c testpage.ps > testpage.zc
193
196 /usr/bin/foo2lava-wrapper
197
199 foo2lava(1), lavadecode(1) opldecode(1)
