=head1 NAME
Prima::PS::Printer - PostScript interface to Prima::Printer
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use Prima;
use Prima::PS::Printer;
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Realizes the Prima printer interface to PostScript level 2 document language
through Prima::PS::PostScript module and PDF v1.4 through the Prima::PS::PDF
module. Allows different user profiles to be created and managed with GUI setup
dialog. The module is designed to be compliant with Prima::Printer interface.
Also contains convenience classes (File, LPR, Pipe) for non-GUI use.
=head1 SYNOPSIS

=head1 Printer options
Below is the list of options supported by C<options> method:
=over
=item Color STRING
One of : C<Color, Monochrome>
=item Resolution INTEGER
Dots per inch.
=item PageSize STRING
One of: C<AI<integer>, BI<integer>, Executive, Folio, Ledger, Legal, Letter, Tabloid,
US Common #10 Envelope>.
=item Copies INTEGER
(not applicable to PDF)
=item Scaling FLOAT
1 is 100%, 1.5 is 150%, etc.
=item Orientation
One of : C<Portrait>, C<Landscape>.
=item MediaType STRING
An arbitrary string representing special attributes of the medium other
than its size, color, and weight. This parameter can be used to identify special
media such as envelopes, letterheads, or preprinted forms.
(not applicable to PDF)
=item MediaColor STRING
A string identifying the color of the medium.
(not applicable to PDF)
=item MediaWeight FLOAT
The weight of the medium in grams per square meter. "Basis weight" or
or null "ream weight" in pounds can be converted to grams per square meter by
multiplying by 3.76; for example, 10-pound paper is approximately 37.6
grams per square meter.
(not applicable to PDF)
=item MediaClass STRING
(Level 3) An arbitrary string representing attributes of the medium
that may require special action by the output device, such as the selection
of a color rendering dictionary. Devices should use the value of this
parameter to trigger such media-related actions, reserving the MediaType
parameter (above) for generic attributes requiring no device-specific action.
The MediaClass entry in the output device dictionary defines the allowable
values for this parameter on a given device; attempting to set it to an unsupported
value will cause a configuration error.

=item InsertSheet BOOLEAN
(Level 3) A flag specifying whether to insert a sheet of some special
medium directly into the output document. Media coming from a source
for which this attribute is Yes are sent directly to the output bin without
passing through the device's usual imaging mechanism (such as the fuser
assembly on a laser printer). Consequently, nothing painted on the current
page is actually imaged on the inserted medium.

=item LeadingEdge BOOLEAN
(Level 3) A value specifying the edge of the input medium that will
enter the printing engine or imager first and across which data will be imaged.
Values reflect positions relative to a canonical page in portrait orientation
(width smaller than height). When duplex printing is enabled, the canonical
page orientation refers only to the front (recto) side of the medium.

=item ManualFeed BOOLEAN
Flag indicating whether the input medium is to be fed manually by a human
operator (Yes) or automatically (No). A Yes value asserts that the
human operator will manually feed media conforming to the specified attributes
( MediaColor, MediaWeight, MediaType, MediaClass, and InsertSheet). Thus, those
attributes are not used to select from available media sources in the normal way,
although their values may be presented to the human operator as an aid in selecting
the correct medium. On devices that offer more than one manual feeding mechanism,
the attributes may select among them.

=item TraySwitch BOOLEAN
(Level 3) A flag specifying whether the output device supports
automatic switching of media sources. When the originally selected source
runs out of medium, some devices with multiple media sources can switch
automatically, without human intervention, to an alternate source with the
same attributes (such as PageSize and MediaColor) as the original.
(not applicable to PDF)
=item MediaPosition STRING
(Level 3) The position number of the media source to be used.
This parameter does not override the normal media selection process
described in the text, but if specified it will be honored - provided it can
satisfy the input media request in a manner consistent with normal media
selection - even if the media source it specifies is not the best available
match for the requested attributes.
(not applicable to PDF)
=item DeferredMediaSelection BOOLEAN
(Level 3) A flag determining when to perform media selection.
If Yes, media will be selected by an independent printing subsystem associated
with the output device itself.
(not applicable to PDF)
=item MatchAll BOOLEAN
A flag specifying whether input media request should match to all
non-null values - MediaColor, MediaWeight etc.
