NAME


psmandup - print duplex on non duplex printers

SYNOPSIS


psmandup FILE

DESCRIPTION


Tries to produce a version of the PostScript FILE to print in manual Duplex.

OPTIONS


-h, --help display this help and exit
-v, --version
 display version information and exit
-q, --quiet
 don’t print informational messages
-o, --output=FILE
 save result in FILE. If FILE is ‘-’, send to stdout
-n, --no-fix don’t call fixps to fix PS problems in FILE
-f, --front
 output only the front pages (recto) on the regular tray
-b, --back output only the back pages (verso) on the manual feed tray
Produced output is meant for PS level 2 printers which don’t support Duplex printing, but support Manual Feed. Once the first set of pages is printed (odd pages), manual feed is asked: introduce the odd pages to print the even pages on the other side.

Because there is usually a short time out for manually fed jobs, you should really be next to the printer. If ever the time out expired, use the option -b to send only the missing part.

Environment variables FIXPS, PSSELECT and PSSET, if defined, are used to find the tools.
