I don't know, it works for me: ppmtolss16 eats ASCII and binary PNM (or
by another name: PPM) files without problems.  My binary PNM starts with

P6
# CREATOR: GIMP PNM Filter Version 1.1
640 480
255

and the ASCII one with

P3
# CREATOR: GIMP PNM Filter Version 1.1
640 480
255

You may want to check yours.  The error message indicates a missing
P[1-6] signature.
