You might also consider RJE emulation.  There's a package called
BARR/HASP that runs under MS/DOS and emulates a bisync multileaving RJE
workstation or an SNA/RJE workstation.  It supports like speeds >64 kb
and printer speeds up to 6000 lpm.  It can handle just about any
printer you can attach to a PC.  They even have a channel card for
printers with an IBM channel interface.  The company is Barr Systems
Inc., Gainsville, Florida, (800) BARR-SYS.

I'm a satisfied customer.
