WP 5.1 can print to a disk file instead of a real printer. The resulting file
can be copied in binary mode directly to a printer. I have done this for
HP PCL printers. 

You simply install the printer with a disk file name as the printer port.
Everything else is done exactly the same as if you had a real printer.
