 Just as a second opinion, we use mostly PCL 6 drivers and the Citrix
UPD and have had no issues with BSODs.  I cannot vouch for the increase
in traffic because we don't have much in the way of bandwidth
restrictions.  Personally, I think that the PCL 6 drivers are much
better written now than in the past, specifically with HP printers.

PCL5e tends to be more stable and manageable than PCL6, and it should
also produce less network traffic than any other driver.

I once saw an extremely good study of printer drivers (It's amazing what
people will do to justify enough work for a contract extension), and PCL
5 won on both bandwidth and stability, but not by much.
