	I developed such a beast while working (under contract) for Ford Motor 
Company.  It worked with the "normal" Masscomp graphics (not Aurora or
Internal) and dumped to a HP LaserJet+.  You would have to contact Ford
to find out if they wish to release it.  You can try:

{pyramid | philabs }!fmsrl7!fmsrl8!conle (Al Conle)
(your favorite router should know fmsrl7)

for information.  If you never get a reply, you may contact me and I will
investigate.  Please include a reasonable reply address in either case (a
complete path, if possible, for Al).  When you contact Ford, you should 
also mention my name or include this message so that Al knows where you got
the information.
