SuSE Linux: Versions in erster Linie: apsfilter und ghostscript to 4.03 der ersten Auflage von SuSE 5.0
/var/spool/lpd/DRIVERS_NAME-*-*-*-*/log
Unrecoverable error: rangecheck in .putdeviceprops (1488)op_array(488)0x818cccc:E
/etc/apsfilterrc.TREIBER_NAME
(for HP DeskJet) after the actual installation with YaST:
GS_FEATURES="-dBitsPerPixel=16"or just
GS_FEATURES=""Make sure that if there is a "if" both variables are set.
if [ "$COLOR" = "mono" ] ; then GS_FEATURES="" # PRELOADS="" else GS_FEATURES="-dBitsPerPixel=16" # PRELOADS="" fi
A list of possible values may be found in
/usr/doc/packages/ghostscript/doc/devices.txt
or /var/lib/apsfilter/doc/deskjets.features
.
We recommend testing these paramters by invoking ghostscript manually. Here you might see where the error occurs. You may enter somethin like (that's one line!):
gs -q -dNOPAUSE -dSAFER -dSHORTERRORS -sDEVICE=cdeskjet -r300 -dBitsPerPixel=16 -sPAPERSIZE=a4 -sOutputFile=/dev/null /usr/doc/packages/ghostscript/examples/alphabet.psor:
gs -q -dNOPAUSE -dSAFER -dSHORTERRORS -sDEVICE=bjc600 -r360x360 -dBitsPerPixel=16 -sPAPERSIZE=a4 -sOutputFile=/dev/null /usr/doc/packages/ghostscript/examples/alphabet.ps
If you replace /dev/null
by the actual printer device,
e.g. /dev/lp1
the given PostScript file is actually printed. This
makes it easy for you to find an optimal combination of necessary parametrs
for your printer.
For those using an Epson Stylus: please try experimenting with the resolutions
360x360, 720x360, 720x720, 360x720 (variable GS_RESOL) in combination with the
parameter -dSoftweave (variable GS_FEATURES).
Furthermore you may avoid the "staircase effect" while printing directly to the
raw device (lpr -Praw DATEI
) by entering the following line:
(this is an example for a DeskJet printer [cdj550]):
PRINT_RAW_SETUP_PRINTER='\033&k2G\033(s1Q\033&k5W\033&l0L\033&a7L\033(s12H'This effect is due to the printer which has been setup for DOS. There is a DIP switch for most printers (HP, Canon) to activate/deactivat this behaviour.
Set PRINT_RAW_SUPPRESS_FORMFEED="yes"
if you want to avoid a
formfeed after the print job has been completed.
Detailed information on apsfilter variables can be found in
/etc/apsfilterrc
.
