George;


We use a product called "Forms Electric"
http://www.visual.co.uk/formselectric.asp that converts a print file into a
macro. It's old and clunky - but paid for and works.



Or you can edit your converted PCL file directly (or you can put the graphic
in a document and print it to a file using a generic HP printer) and then
remove any "page" type pcl commands from it so you can turn it into a macro.


It may also depend on how you're sending to the printer that's causing your
problem.
