Merge part of Dave Coffin's hbpl1.patch (located here): https://web.archive.org/web/20160515134331/http://cybercom.net/~dcoffin/hbpl/hbpl1.patch to current foo2zjs. Note that it is a merge since much has changed. Only foo2hbpl1, foo2hbpl1-wrapper, and manuals added here since the other files like PPDs and xml files should be added to foomatic-db. Note edits and upgrades required to sync-up with current code base.

At this point - the above could be compared with the patch before modifications |
foo2hbpl1.c points of interest: - Added -z1 option to work with Xerox 6000 and 6010 which seems to have larger media list compared to the initial Dell C1250c, plus discovered COPIES=n works too (kept backwards compatibility for older printers). - Added printer reset so we have printer in a known state before loading job, and another reset as housekeeping cleanup when finishing job. This only done for -z1 printers (don't know if reset works on -z0 printers). - Break large print jobs into smaller jobs to keep within printer buffer. Printed large 82 page pdf without having to break it into small parts. - Moved all Global variables into Job structure, this should make program compatible with multithreading, plus we can clean-up memory in error(). - Moved Streams into Job structure so we can clean-up memory in error(), this meant having to edit putbits() and friends to pass int n instead. - Static const arrays put in global space to be shared amongst functions. - Added static const everywhere to avoid loading unnecessary mem arrays. - Added more options like in foo2zjs, eg: debug, save_toner. See main(). - Replaced clip option -u with -u, -l and -L to work similar to foo2zjs. - Check for absurdly large clipping and avoid/compensate when necessary. - Replaced several for loops with faster memset(). - Used strncpy and MAXSTREAM to avoid Stream buffer overflows. - More info added to reca[], head[], body[] (from info in hbpldecode.c). - Debug >= 9 prints time as "02/26/2026 12:34:56" for md5sum 'make check' - getint() has more input checks. script foo2hbpl1-wrapper, and man files foo2hbpl1.1, foo2hbpl1-wrapper.1 - Updated and upgraded options to work with this updated foo2hbpl1
