Windows driver output show cross hatching attached.

I changed the Ubuntu driver to be the Generic PCL 5c and that test PDF
prints perfectly.

I then made a 3 page LibreOffice doc consisting of text, images and
colourful web page pasted in and made it print with the PCL 5c driver in
highest resolution & quality colour plus duplex.  Both the colour and
the duplex worked, but the images were a little grainy.  It also took
several minutes for the pages to come out due to printer processing
time.

Switching back to the PCL 6/XL driver had completely screwed up colour
mostly having a washed out beige effect and I couldn't figure out a way
of fixing that (seems to be affected by print job content).  It only
took a few seconds for the print job to come out.  I also tried
Gutenprint but couldn't figure out a way to make it produce colour.

So using the PCL 5c driver will result in most reliable print jobs, but
images are a little grainy and you get long processing times on complex
jobs.

Using the PCL 6 driver will result in the fastest jobs and good image
quality.  Except when it doesn't work by leaving out coloured letters,
or messes colours up completely.
