Anyone managed to print to a network attached laserjet from plan9?

I have (I think) the correct /sys/lib/lp/devices line:

conv conversion pr_slp_61 - - gs!ljet4+nohead generic lpdspool lpd - - FIFO

but when I try I get garbage. 

The device is a Sharp MX-4100 without postscript support,  so I am using PCL.

the docco claims it supports PCL6 and PCL5c. I thought the pcl4 generated by
ghostscript in ljet4 mode would be compatible but it appears not.

Anyone known about PCL, do I need a prelude and prologue on the file or do I 
need
to upgrade to the latest ghostscript drivers?

honest..."
