How to get PJL out of 'Kyocera-Postscript'?

Hi,
Unfortunately, I have some problems with postscript-output on all of my
Kyocera printers (FS-1010 & FS-1030D): Sometimes, everything will be
printed as plain-text, because it seems, that the first few
'@PJL'-commands mess up the whole postscript interpretation.
Afterwards, I saw, that - when I print over Windows - I send
automatically '@PJL'-stuff to cups, so I commented the following lines
of my Kyocera-PPD's out (on CUPS & Windows-side):
*% Protocols
*%Protocols: PJL TBCP
*% JCL Information
*%JCLBegin: "<1B>%-12345X at PJL JOB<0A>"
*%JCLToPSInterpreter: "@PJL ENTER LANGUAGE=POSTSCRIPT<0A>"
*%JCLEnd: "<1B>%-12345X at PJL EOJ<0A><1B>%-12345X"
That gave me clean postscript-output on the Windows-side (tested over
the 'print-to-file'-switch). However, I still get distorted output with
'@PJL'-lines at the beginning and I just don't know why. It looks like this:
*************BEGIN*************
t.jpg"
@PJL ENTER LANGUAGE=POSTSCRIPT
%!PS-Adobe-3.0
%RBINumCopies: 1
%%Pages: (atend)
%%Title: test.jpg
%%Creator: PScript5.dll Version 5.2.2
%%CreationDate: 5/2/2006 23:51:36
(...)
*************END***************
(Please note: The tabs at the first few lines were not accidentally
entered - it looks always exactly like this.)
Interesting is also, that I have _less_ problems, if I choose the
'High-Compatibility' option of the 'Mini-KPDL'-Kyocera-Driver (section
'Postscript-Options').
If somebody could just tell me a way to find out, where exactly the
'PJL'-stuff gets into the 'stream' and why this just happens sometimes,
I would be very, very happy.
Thank you very much.
Petar
