If you view the files using Adobe Acrobat Reader on your pc I would have thought that with the correct windows drivers they should print ok from there.

Ghostscript can read PDFs and create
Laserjet compatible output; I gather that
it's actually generating PCL.

gs -sOutputFile=foo.pcl -sDEVICE=ljet4 foo.pdf

Here's a link to a site with tons of utilities:

and here's the link where you can get ghostscript (gs-5.10) and even more utilities:
