Even though file(1) calls it PJL encapsulated PostScript, it is indeed
pcl.  Look at the file with, eg, less(1) and you'll see:

12345X at PJL
@PJL COMMENT CIB format/pcl 5.8.3a.79433 - www.cib.de
@PJL ENTER LANGUAGE=PCL

at the start.

If the printer supports pcl you can send it with -o raw.

Ie, try:  lp -d $PRINTER -o raw muster.pcl
