Say something like
$ sudo gem install pjl
or first examine it on <https://github.com/BertramScharpf/ruby-pjl>.
There's a small dependency on a gem "appl" that's also
available on RubyGems and on my Github page.
However, to the present day I did not manage to make the
scanner work on FreeBSD. I plug it into a Linux machine
before I scan.
