Print to PCL6

[Jose Lerebours]

Well, say:

1. Set it as a share/network printer
2. Try setting the printer with a static IP and try printing to the IP
3. Can you print to it from other applications?
4. https://eternallybored.org/misc/netcat/  -  Try using NetCat for 
windows, this may be a solution (I used to use NetCat for UNIX and it 
was great!)

Sorry but from here it felt as though you did: bought a printer, plugged 
a printer, edited printer table, tried printing to printer ... well, it 
does not work, let me ask why!  ;-)

Oh, please refer to Mark's response for valuable info.
