       -n copies
              Number of copies [1].

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

       -s source
              Source (InputSlot) code to send to printer [7].
              |          |
              |1   upper | 4   manual
              |2   lower | 7   auto

       -t     Draft mode.  Every other pixel is white.

       -T density
              Print density (1-5).  The default is 3 (medium).

       -J filename
              Filename string to send to printer.

       -U username
              Username string to send to printer.

   Printer Tweaking Options
       These  are the options used to customize the operation of foo2zjs for a
       particular printer.

       -u xoffxyoff
              Set the offset of the start of the  printable  region  from  the
              upper left corner, in pixels [0x0].

       -l xoffxyoff
              Set the offset of the end of the printable region from the lower
              right corner, in pixels [0x0].

       -L mask
              Send logical clipping amounts implied by -u/-l in  the  ZjStream
              [3].

              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 black and white only printers,  such  as  the  HP
              LaserJet 1000.

       -A     AllIsBlack: convert C=1,M=1,Y=1 to just K=1.  Works with bitcmyk
              input only.

       -B     BlackClears: K=1 forces C,M,Y to 0.  Works  with  bitcmyk  input
              only.

       -X padlen
              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.

       -z model
              Model. Default is 0.

              0   KM 2300DL / HP 1000 / HP 1005
              1   HP 1018 / HP 1020 / HP 1022
              2   HP Pro P1102 / P1566 / P1606dn

   Debugging Options
       These options are used for debugging foo2zjs.

       -S plane
              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

       -D level
              Set Debug level [0].

EXAMPLES

       Create a black and white ZJS stream:

              gs -q -dBATCH -dSAFER -dQUIET -dNOPAUSE
                  -sPAPERSIZE=letter -r1200x600 -sDEVICE=pbmraw
                  -sOutputFile=- - < testpage.ps
              | foo2zjs -r1200x600 -g10200x6600 -p1 >testpage.zm

       Create a color ZJS stream:

              gs -q -dBATCH -dSAFER -dQUIET -dNOPAUSE
                  -sPAPERSIZE=letter -g10200x6600 -r1200x600 -sDEVICE=bitcmyk
                  -sOutputFile=- - < testpage.ps
              | foo2zjs -r1200x600 -g10200x6600 -p1 >testpage.zc
