I can find nothing about PCLm and PCLmS beyond other people asking "what is 
it?"  All of the websites I could find with a history of PCL versions have 
PCL1 through PCL6, but no PCLm.

It appears that the printer industry is getting even deeper into the "you 
don't need to know that, just install our drivers and you'll be fine" mode.
