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 double 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 ),
       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 resolution 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.

HISTORY
       pbmtoibm23xx was new in Netpbm 10.25 (October 2004).
