Yes, it's for ESC/P2 printers.

It's just a printer driver - converts bitmaps (PBM) to epson-specific
control sequences. The only real difference is that it doesn't have the
same dithering functions as regular drivers - it puts down a 100% solid
pattern, which only works with the UV films with fast-drying coatings on
them.
