Suppose the file containing the text is foo.txt, and the file
containing the output from psplot is bar.ps.

Run foo.txt through enscript making foo.ps, e.g.,

  enscript -fHelvetica12 -B -p foo.ps foo.txt

Now patching together the PostScript files and sending them to the
printer gets them printed.  The only problem is that both foo.ps and
bar.ps contain page eject commands -- the PostScript "showpage"
operator.  That must be stripped out of one of the files with an
editor.  For example

  sed "s/showpage//" bar.ps | cat - foo.ps | lpr

does the job, assuming you have a UNIX system.  If not the principle
is the same, patch together the files removing the showpage from one.
