A while ago there was a discussion (and a nifty program provided by Jim
Wowchuck) that allowed one to capture a printfile on a PC and send it to
the spooler on the 3000... Has anyone done the reverse?

We're looking for a way to capture a spoolfile (including imbedded PCL-type
stuff that might be at the beginning or in the environment file) into a file
that can be FTP'd or copied to tape for delivery to another system (PC?) at
a remote location where it will be actually printed. We're assuming here that
there is no on-demand network connection available between the 3000 and the
remote system (otherwise we'd just recommend one of the remote printing
solutions).

Just copy'ing the spoolfile doesn't work... especially when there are blocks
of pcl/binary stuff in the file. Any suggestions?

                    TIA,
