There is a commercial product called Printer Control Panel which can
automatically put your printer into PCL mode, which works fine *IF*
your printer has PCL. There are PD text formatters written in
PostScript which you can prepend to a file before printing it.

Could you amplify your need a bit? Regards!

Do you need a TSR?  I download a PostScript program into the printer.  This
has the advantage of not conflicting with any other TSR's.  The program I use
is VERY dumb.  But, it works for me.
