To jmanj,
Thanks for the response - currently I use Formflow Formdesigner. I generate the PCL code by printing the form design to a file. I then edit the file slightly, making it into the macro that I need. I then place some PCL code at the start of my documents to call the required macro...

I have been thru some of it already from other sites, but was not aware of the site you referenced.
I get the idea of the "user streams", and actually have a PCL6 strream that generates a form to my HP2550 PCL6 printer. Comes out in color and...
So is it possible to print using PJL somewhat like it was with PCL, where a macro could be defined then called by a print job? If the printer is "setup" using PJL, can that setup be used by a print job? Can I ember the data into the actual PJL code? Thanks for the reply...
I have generated a PJL print sequence that will print a graphic to an HP2550 PCL6 printer. I am trying to print data to the printer and tell it to use that PJL code as the form. Any one had success with this?
I know what you mean - I tried an HP Color 5M driver - get great PCL code and able to ruen it into a macro - but prints like crap on the HP2550PCL6 printer.
I think the bad guy here is HP PCL6 drivers.
I have been using an old copy of FormFlow Designer to design and output PCL macros. I then massage the output, and create downloadable macros for HP PCL compatible printers. I download the marcos, activate the macros using some PCL escapes and then send the print job, all wrapped up in one...
