cjet - converts HP PCL to Canon CaPSL format
Contents
Description
This manual page documents briefly the cjet command. This manual page was written for the Debian
distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.
cjet converts the common HP PCL page description language to Canon's CaPSL, which was used in the
mid-1990s by some Canon laser printers. It is normally used as part of a printer filter script, like the
Foomatic system.
