   To install the driver, simply copy sipixa6.upp into one of the
   directories listed in the &quot;Search path&quot; which you find in
   the output of the command &quot;&lt;tt&gt;gs
   --help&lt;/tt&gt;&quot;.&lt;p&gt;

   To set up the printer and print, proceed as follows:&lt;p&gt;

   First step is to set the proper serial port parameters:&lt;p&gt;

   &lt;tt&gt;stty -F /dev/ttyS1 115200 crtscts cs8 -cstopb
   -parenb&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;p&gt;

   Your serial port may be &lt;tt&gt;/dev/ttyS0&lt;/tt&gt;.&lt;p&gt;

   First you have to resize the postscript document down to
   A6:&lt;p&gt;

   &lt;tt&gt;psresize -w10.5cm -h14.8cm -Pletter old.ps
   new.ps&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;p&gt;

   Then send it through Ghostscript:&lt;p&gt;

   &lt;tt&gt;gs @sipixa6.upp -sPAPERSIZE=a6 -sOutputFile=new.bin
   new.ps -c quit&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;p&gt;

   After that send the binary file to the printer:&lt;p&gt;

   &lt;/tt&gt;cat new.bin &gt; /dev/ttyS1&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;p&gt;

   Ghostscript does not always put a final cr/lf pair at the end of
   the binary file, so make a 2 byte file with a cr/lf pair. Then
   do:&lt;p&gt;

   &lt;tt&gt;cat new.bin fileend.bin &gt; /dev/ttyS1&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;p&gt;

   If you use the PPD file provided here together with your printing
   system, the pages are scaled automatically to fit the A6 paper and
   the cr/lf is also added automatically.&lt;p&gt;

   As CUPS URI use:&lt;p&gt;

   &lt;tt&gt;serial:/dev/ttyS0?baud=115200+size=8+parity=none+stop=1+flow=rtscts&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;p&gt;
