My MKPCL program will read a .jpg file and output
a PCL file; however, the output is a monochome image
for a B&W printer. This is a commercial program.
I don't know how practical it would be for a general
purpose program to output a color PCL file. Differences
between printers might make it very difficult to produce
good quality images across different printer and paper
brands. In the typical windows environment you are
printing through a driver specific to the printer.
Why JPEG? JPEG's lossy compression it great for graphics, but cause text quality to suffer.
We have a TIFF2PCL .exe and .dll. However, it's expecting either 300 or 600 dpi monochrome TIFF.
You need to state whether you have unique application requirements. If you picked JPEG because of 24-bit color, then you need pick the PCL5c print device you are targeting.
