Convert PCL5 to PCLXL (PCL6).

We use an application which produces forms from accounting data (Logo, various fonts, boxes, shading, etc.)
We've found that the output isn't interpreted correctly on a "PCL6-only" printer. Most PCL6 capable printers also understand PCL5, so there is no problem. For the few which no longer support PCL5, we need some kind of conversion utility.

Anybody know of one?

Another option is to convert the PCL5 output to PostScript. I'd appreciate ideas on that as well.

(I am also posting this in the "HP Printers" forum, but I need a UNIX-based solution)
