Description

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.

Examples

       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
