 - Corrected a problem with establishment of passive FTP data connection. The
   connection is now not considered established until the three-way handshake

   through ftp and telnet.

   PCL fonts in the PCL 3/4 driver.

 - The font width calculation in the IPDS PCL driver is enhanced.

 - Support for the three page sizes Folio, Hagaki and Statement is added to the
   IPDS PCL driver.

 - The IPDS PCL driver is now always sending the paper Source command to the
   printer.

 - The default paper source numbers in the IPDS PCL driver is changed to match
   the paper source numbers used in the SCS PCL driver.
