OAKT printers understand a simple printer language that uses JBIG
|
|
compression to send a bitmap (raster) image of the printed page to the
|
|
printer. This printer language was designed by Oak Technology (now Zoran)
|
|
and is licensed by (at least) HP for the Color LaserJet 1500. The printer
|
|
language is highly efficient, but requires the host computer to render
|
|
characters, halftones, etc.
|
|
|
|
If you have a Windows driver for your printer and the "About" panel
|
|
for the driver lists Copyright Oak Technology or Zoran, then you may have
|
|
a printer that understands the OAKT language. If you print to a file
|
|
and the first four characters of the file are "OAKT", then you have
|
|
a printer that understands the OAKT language.
|
|
|
|
There doesn't seem to be an official name for this language. Oak
|
|
Technology calls it simply "Raster Driver". That name is not specific
|
|
enough, so we have named it "OAKT", which are the first 4 characters
|
|
found in the printer stream.
|
|
|
|
There exists a development stage decoder and a printer driver for
|
|
this language. However, it is untested and unreleased. If someone
|
|
is willing to donate a HP Laserjet 1500 printer and fund the development
|
|
of the driver, please contact rickr@mn.rr.com.
