+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+This program is part of
+.BR "Netpbm" (1)\c
+\&.
+
+\fBpbmtoepson\fP reads a PBM image as input and produces a stream of
+Epson printer graphics as output.
+.PP
+The input is from the file identified by the \fIpbmfile\fP argument
+or, if you don't specify \fIpbmfile\fP, from Standard Input. Output is
+to Standard Output.
+.PP
+The output is for traditional (ca 1991) Epson 9-wire dot matrix
+(sometimes called ESC/P 9-wire) printers or newer ESC/P printers. For
+a more modern Epson ESC/P2 type printer, try \fBpbmtoescp2\fP.
+.PP
+Before Netpbm 10.23 (July 2004), \fBpbmtoepson\fP could not produce
+ESC/P streams -- only ESC/P 9-wire.
+.PP
+The Epson printer protocols are described in Epson's protocol
+specification.
+.PP
+Note that there is no epsontopbm tool - this transformation is one way.
+
+.UN options
+.SH OPTIONS
+.PP
+In addition to the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm
+(most notably \fB-quiet\fP, see
+.UR index.html#commonoptions
+ Common Options
+.UE
+\&), \fBpbmtoepson\fP recognizes the following
+command line options:
+
+
+
+.TP
+\fB-protocol=\fP{\fBescp9\fP|\fBescp\fP}
+This determines which Epson printer protocol the output uses.
+\fBescp9\fP is the older ESC/P 9-pin protocol. \fBescp\fP is the
+newer ESC/P protocol. For the even newer \fBESC/P2\fP protocol, you
+have to use \fBpbmtoescp2\fP instead.
+.sp
+This option was new in Netpbm 10.23 (July 2004).
+
+
+.TP
+\fB-dpi=\fP\fIn\fP
+This specifies the horizontal print density in dots per inch. The
+protocol allows only certain values: 60, 72, 80, 90, 120, 144, and 240.
+Actually, the ESC/P protocol allows a few others, but \fBpbmtoepson\fP
+doesn't know how to generate the command streams that use them.
+.sp
+If you don't specify this, \fBpbmtoepson\fP chooses a horizontal
+print density for you consistent with your other options.
+.sp
+This option was new in Netpbm 10.23 (July 2004).
+
+.TP
+\fB-adjacent\fP
+.TP
+\fB-nonadjacent\fP
+These options determine whether the output uses "adjacent dot
+printing" or not, whatever that is.
+.sp
+If you don't specify this, \fBpbmtoepson\fP selects adjacent dot
+printing unless that is incompatible with your other options.
+.sp
+This option was new in Netpbm 10.23 (July 2004).
