Addendum to my last note, the suggestion of slave printing serial
solutions would also be possible on networked connections.  Which
brings up another point...

Many of these "slave printing" solutions presume some minimal
intelligence on the printer end (like formfeed ^L, etc) if not an
outright Laserjet (PCL).  I would warn you that many attached printers
(postscript, newer DeskJets "for windows") have problems with this as
all of the intelligence is in the print driver, and the result may not
be exactly what you expected :-(
