Thanks for your input. I'm going to study that.
On my samba3 server I had a pdf-printer using cups.
But I also had a printer that converts pcl to pdf. And that's what I'm 
trying to do, utimately : make a pcl to pdf printer (see my first post).
Since that did not work I was trying to get that ps-to-pdf-printer to 
work so I could try modify that printer to convert pcl to pdf in stead 
of postscript to pdf.
