-t Draft mode. Every other pixel is white.
-Tdensity
Print density (1-5). The default is 3 (medium).
-2-3-4-5-6-8-9-10-12-14-15-16-18
Print in N-up. Requires the psutils package.

Orientation used for N-up.
Portrait -op (normal)

PrinterTweakingOptions
These are the options used to customize the operation of foo2hbpl2 for a particular printer.
-uxoffxyoff
Set the offset of the start of the printable region from the upper left corner, in pixels [varies
with paper size]. The defaults should work on the 2200DL and 2300DL, and have not been tested on
any other printers.
-lxoffxyoff
Set the offset of the end of the printable region from the lower right corner, in pixels [varies
with paper size]. The defaults should work on the 2200DL and 2300DL, and have not been tested on
any other printers.
-Lmask
Send the logical clipping values from -u/-l in the ZjStream. foo2hbpl2-wrapper always runs
Ghostscript with the ideal page dimensions, so that the scale of the image is correct, regardless
whether or not the printer has unprintable regions. This option is used to move the position of
the clipped image back to where it belongs on the page. The default is to send the amount which
was clipped by -u and -l, and should be good in most cases.
0 don't send any logical clipping amounts
1 only send Y clipping amount
2 only send X clipping amount
3 send both X and Y clipping amounts
-P Do not send START_PLANE codes on monochrome output. May be needed by some monochrome-only
printers, such as the HP LaserJet 1000.
-Xpadlen
Add extra zero padding to the end of BID segments. The default is 16 bytes. Padding 16 bytes of
zeroes is needed for older ZjStream printers, such as the Minolta 2200DL and HP LaserJet 1000, and
seems harmless to newer ones, such as the Minolta 2300DL. So the default should be good for all
cases.
ColorTweakingOptions
These are the options used to control the quality of color output. Color correction is currently a WORK
IN PROGRESS.
-ggsopts
Additional options to pass to Ghostscript, such as -g“-dDITHERPPI=nnn”, etc. This option may
appear more than once.
-Gprofile.icm
Convert profile.icm to a Postscript color rendering dictionary (CRD) using foo2zjs-icc2ps and
adjust the printer colors by using the Postscript setcolorrendering operator. (WORK IN PROGRESS).
-Ggamma-file.ps
Prepend gamma-file.ps to the Postscript input to perform color correction using the
setcolortransfer Postscript operator. For example, the file might contain:
{0.333 exp} {0.333 exp} {0.333 exp} {0.333 exp} setcolortransfer
-Iintent
Select profile intent from the ICM file. 0=Perceptual, 1=Colorimetric, 2=Saturation, 3=Absolute.
Default is 0 (perceptual).
DebuggingOptions
These options are used for debugging foo2hbpl2 and its wrapper.
-Splane
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.
1 Cyan
2 Magenta
3 Yellow
4 Black
-Dlevel
Set Debug level [0].
