be available if you specify it when data need to be printed through another server or data need to be handled by
another program such as PostScript files. Collate is automatically specified when you specify Proof Print.
Example
To output the displayed screen image to a file using the snapshot command and convert the file into the PostScript
language program using the sunras2ps2 command, type as follows.
% sunras2ps2 file.rs > file.ps
To output the displayed screen image to a file using the snapshot command, convert the file into the PostScript language
program using the sunras2ps2 command and output it to a printer, type as follows.
% sunras2ps2 file.rs | lp
Important
When -s and -S are specified at the same time or when the same option is specified twice, the later setting will
prevail.
If the output size option (-s, -S) is not specified, scaling will be executed taking one pixel of the raster data as
one pixel of the printer.
If the print position option specifies a point beyond the printable area of the printer, data beyond the printable area
will not be printed.
tiff2ps2 (Linux/Solaris/HP-UX)
Format
/usr/local/dellbin5100cn/tiff2ps2 [-d] [-D] [-Itray-input] [-t] [-r] [-n] [-l=left,bottom] [-
s=width,height] [-S=width] [-E] [-Nc=copies] [-Cl] [-Hd=position:format] [-Hffont] [-MSI] [-M=type]
[-Mfo=mode] [-Pon] [-St=mode] [-Sp] [-Sb] [-Cm=mode] [-Pr=mode] [-Cc=mode] [-Gc=mode] [-Sc=mode] [-
Gg=mode] [-Ct] [-Hld=PrintType:UserID:Password:DocumentName] [filename...]
Function
Reads TIFF data, converts it to the PostScript language program and writes to standard output. If the filename is not
specified, the standard input will be taken as the command input. TIFF files with a pixel depth of 1, 4, 8, 24, and 32 bits
can be specified.
There are four types of supported compression formats.
Huffman compression (CCITT Group 3 transformed Huffman run length encoding)
Fax-CCITT3 compression (facsimile-compatible CCITT Group 3)
PackBits compression
Non-compression
Even in the above compression format, the TIFF file that has multiple images in one file is not supported.
tiff2ps2 takes filename as having been created in 72 dpi and calculates the output size. Thus, to convert TIFF files created
in other resolutions, specify the size option (-s, -S) explicitly for conversion.
Option
-d
Enables the short-edge binding feature. When it is specified, the printing direction or position will be adjusted and
both sides of the paper printed so that the shorter edge of the pages can be bound.
