I've been sending Ghostscript output to a 9-pin printer for a year now.
Ask Peter to include my drivers in the standard distribution.  If you
want to see it in 1.4, you'd better hurry, as 1.4 is currently in Beta

The Hershey fonts include a bunch of music glyphs which can be used
with Ghostscript.  Is there a 'standard' encoding for PostScript music
fonts?  I'm working on a set of Hershey-based PostScript fonts for
Ghostscript, but I don't want to introduce non-standard encodings if
there is already something out there.
