I don't think ghostpcl should be printing anything for the GL/2 mode 
stuff.  Our interpreter automatically switches back to PCL when it sees 
the escape sequence.  We'll call that a "feature".  As for the 
"pcl-only" case our interpreter matches HP and the PCL specification.  I 
don't think you want to add a LF after each raster transfer.  The parser 
goes into text mode.  I fixed your file but it looks like there is still 
a typo in the raster data.
