The start of test.prn has the model. It seems as if the model is supported.

<https://askubuntu.com/questions/811930/unable-to-install-hp-deskjet-2540-drivers>I didn't save the email with the gs command. test.prn starts with 11,000 nulls.

Use -dSendNULs=11000 to send nulls. test.prn ended with some <esc>*b0W sequences. Adding -dOnlyCRD might make a difference.

All of the options are in contrib/pcl3/src/pcl3opts.c
