i use foo2zjs for printing from pbm-files.
i use "foo2zjs -r 600x600 -p 9 -z 1 -P" command line - it work file on 1018, but on 1000 picture is broken:


same printer work with windows drivers without troubles

Use:

    foo2zjs-wrapper -r 600x600 -p 9 -P

on HP LaserJet 1000. -z1 is for HP LaserJet 1018/1020/P2035.

From foo2zjs-wrapper:

#
# Printer Notes:
#
# Minolta/QMS 2300 DL   - Does not need clipping, -X16, or -P.  But it doesn't
#                         break anything if you use them.
#
# Minolta/QMS 2200 DL   - Requires -X16 (which is on by default)
#                       - Requires clipping
#
# HP LaserJet 1000      - Same as 2200 DL, plus needs -P
# HP LaserJet 1005      - Same as 2200 DL, plus needs -P
# HP LaserJet 1018      - Same as 2200 DL, plus needs -P -z1 -L0
# HP LaserJet 1020      - Same as 2200 DL, plus needs -P -z1 -L0
# HP LaserJet P2035     - Same as 2200 DL, plus needs -P -z1 -L0
#

without "-z1" i get empty page. many empty pages

Works here:

$ foo2zjs-wrapper -r600x600 -P testpage.ps > xxx.prn
$ cp xxx.prn /dev/usb/lp0

On fedora 9 and 10.

oops... i forgot - i do "pnmenlarge 2" between foo2zjs (real resolution of picture is 300dpi), so real zjsdecode output must be:

picture size must be exact 4760 x 6816? i try add pnmcut tommorow

$ pbmtolps <image0.pbm > xxx.ps
$ lpr xxx.ps

i do not have ghostscript in this computer.

and it is huge overhead - convert pbm to postscript, rasterize to pbm and send to printer ;)

i try 4760 x 6816 picture size - wthout any success.

but now printer is changed and foo2xqx work here.
