The easiest way to do what I presume you want to do is to simply FTP your
flat-ASCII text or spool file to a PC, appending a ".txt" to the file during
the transfer. Once "myfile.txt" is on the PC, pick it up using any editor
(Notepad, Wordpad, Word, etc.) and print it out. Whether it prints in
PostScript, simple ASCII or PCL depends wholly on which printer driver you
choose to use. The printing language is determined in PCs by the printer
driver, not the file structure per se.
