PCL printer down, my workaround.

Jim Asman had once helped me with printer codes to use in filePro so that
text would properly align on 1099 tax-reporting forms.

But my OfficeJet is having mechanical difficulties.

I used 'pcl6' to convert fP's PCL output to PDF.  I downloaded the PDF
file to my HTC One.  I then went into my wife's room, where there's a
Brother MFC, and I printed to it from my cell phone.

I needn't have kept my fingers crossed: the data came out in the right
boxes on the 1099 forms.
