We are using MLS with laser and matrixprinters.
For laserprinters the fonts arabic, hebrew etc are downloaded (softfonts). 
For 24-p matrix printers the fonts are also downloaded (NEC P6+ etc)
For 9-p printer the fonts are in bit-image in graphic mode ( very slow)

The name of the program is Multi Lingual Scholar from Gamma productions
