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). + + + +.UN seealso +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR "pbmtoescp2" (1)\c +\&, +.BR "pbm" (5)\c +\&, + +.UN author +.SH AUTHOR + +Copyright (C) 1991 by John Tiller (\fItiller@galois.msfc.nasa.gov\fP) +and Jef Poskanzer. +.SH DOCUMENT SOURCE +This manual page was generated by the Netpbm tool 'makeman' from HTML +source.
