The capture process could be as simple as listening for connections on 9100 and slurping up all the data... Not positive since I haven't dealt with PCL network printers, just postscript ones, but it seems logical to guess it's a uninteractive stream since people deal with "pcl files" as well as pcl printers. That would give you raw PCL data. Once you have that, the
pcltotxt tool might help you. You might have to force the print driver to output PCL5 instead of PCL6.
