Hi,
 I've been using pcl6 with great results as part of a daemon that calculates 
page numbers for print jobs in print queues.  It's worked very well.  We've 
added photosmart printers which use PCL3GUI.  If I just run pcl6 in the same 
old way it doesn't always work.  The command I've been using is: 

   pcl6 -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=bbox -sOutputFile=/dev/null filename 

 and then the number of lines are counted and divided by 2 to determine the 
number of pages. 

 Does pcl6 support PCL3GUI? 

 (I can send one of the files that's causing a problem but it's fairly large 
~30MB.)
