PCL question

Good People,

My issue is an aging laserjet4si and its inability to interpret anything beyond PCLv2. Would anyone happen to know an easy way to force just one queue into using only PCL2 formatting?
I dug around in the interface script and in model.orig but didn't see anything immmediately promising and was hoping for a friday quick fix.

Basically I discovered I simply take the raw printjob and change the PCL mode from 3 to a 2 and it formats perfectly, of course my next consideration and probably honestly the more appropriate one would be changing the configuration in an old version of Oracle Tools...but hey its friday and I would like to get drinking.
Best Regards,
Aaron

XSetEventQueueOwner(3)						  XLIB FUNCTIONS					    XSetEventQueueOwner(3)

NAME
XSetEventQueueOwner - set event queue owner on a shared Xlib/XCB connection SYNTAX
#include <X11/Xlib-xcb.h> void XSetEventQueueOwner(Display *dpy, enum XEventQueueOwner owner); ARGUMENTS
dpy Specifies the connection to the X server. owner Specifies the event queue ownership: XlibOwnsEventQueue (default) Xlib owns the event queue. Use the Xlib event-handling functions. Do not call the XCB event-handling functions. XCBOwnsEventQueue XCB owns the event queue. Use the XCB event-handling functions. Do not call the Xlib event-handling functions. DESCRIPTION
While a client using Xlib/XCB can issue requests and handle their replies or errors with either Xlib or XCB, only one can own and handle the event queue. By default, Xlib must own the event queue, for compatibility with legacy Xlib clients. Clients can call XSetEventQueue- Owner immediately after XOpenDisplay to let XCB own the event queue instead. Clients may not call XSetEventQueueOwner at any other time, as this will potentially lose responses. SEE ALSO
