       -ncopies
              Number of copies [1].

       -rxresxyres
              Set device resolution in pixels/inch [1200x600].

       -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.

       -oorient
              Orientation used for N-up.
              Portrait    -op   (normal)
              Landscape   -ol   (rotated 90 degrees anticlockwise)
              Seascape    -os   (rotated 90 degrees clockwise)

   PrinterTweakingOptions
       These are the options used to customize the operation of foo2xqx 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.  foo2xqx-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

   DebuggingOptions
       These options are used for debugging foo2xqx and its wrapper.

       -Dlevel
              Set Debug level [0].

foo2xqx-wrapper  is  a  Foomatic  compatible printer wrapper for the foo2xqx printer driver.  This script
       reads a Postscript ps-file or standard input and converts it to XQX printer format  for  driving  the  HP
       LaserJet  P1005/P1006/P1007/P1008,  the  HP  LaserJet P1505, the HP LaserJet P2014, the HP LaserJet M1005
       MFP, the HP LaserJet M1120 MFP, the HP LaserJet Pro M1132s MFP, the HP  LaserJet  Pro  M1212nf  MFP,  and
       other XQX-based printers.

       This  script  can  be  used  in a standalone fashion, but is intended to be called from a printer spooler
       system which uses the Foomatic printer database.

       Create  a monochrome ZjStream from a Postscript document, examine it, and then print it using a RAW print
       queue:

              foo2xqx-wrapper testpage.ps > testpage.xqx
              xqxdecode < testpage.xqx
              lpr -P raw testpage.xqx
