It is a very slow way to go, but QMS UltraScript PC will interpret
PostScript files on a PC and generate output to matrix and ink-jet
printers.  On an Epson with a wide carriage, it will generate output
11 wide by up to 45 inches long, as a single postscript "page".  The
printer prints until the entire page has been output, then does a form
feed and stops.
