NAME
       pbmtoibm23xx - convert a PBM image to IBM 23XX printer stream

SYNOPSIS
       pbmtoibm23xxx -xres=dpi -yres=dpi [slow [pbmfile ...]

       Minimum  unique abbreviation of option is acceptable.  You may use dou-
       ble hyphens instead of single hyphen to denote options.   You  may  use
       white space in place of the equals sign to separate an option name from
       its value.

DESCRIPTION
       This program is part of Netpbm(1).

       pbmtoibm23xx reads one or more PBM files as input  and  writes  an  IBM
       23XX printer command stream to generate all the images in all the files
       to Standard Output.

       If you don't specify any file names, pbmtoibm23xx reads  from  Standard
       Input.

OPTIONS
       In  addition  to  the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm
       (most notably -quiet, see
        Common Options ⟨index.html#commonoptions⟩ ),  pbmtoibm23xx  recognizes
       the following command line options:

       -xres=dpi
              This  option  specifies  the  horizontal  resolution in dots per
              inch.  Valid values are 60, 120, and 240.

              This option is mandatory.

       -yres=dpi
              This option specifies the vertical resolution in dots per  inch.
              Valid values are 60, 120, and 240.

              This option is mandatory.

       -slow  Use the slower printing mode where two modes with the same reso-
              lution are available.   This  usually  produces  better  quality
              prints.  This affects only modes with horizontal resolution 120,
              but might affect other modes in future versions of the program.

LIMITATIONS
       There are probably better ways to control the IBM 23XX  printers.   Let
       me know if you find any.
