foo2zjs is an open source printer driver for printers that use the Zenographics ZjStream wire protocol for their print data, such as the Minolta/QMS magicolor 2300 DL or Konica Minolta magicolor 2430 DL.

ZjStream printers are raster printers which happen to use a very efficient wire protocol which was developed by Zenographics and licensed by most major printer manufacturers for at least some of their product lines.

ZjStream is just one of many wire protocols that are in use today, such as Postscript, PCL, Epson, etc.

On Mac OS X Jaguar and later, printing with foo2zjs requires Ghostscript (an open-source PostScript interpreter), Foomatic-RIP (a CUPS filter script) and a foomatic PPD for each supported printer. The foomatic PPDs are included in the installation package.

The foo2zjs installer for Mac OS X includes support for these printers.
