well, so my good friend and mentor Scott Hess helped me fix my very bogus  
code, and here is some code that works. It allows you to print a section  
of text that you've selected in a Text object. Happy Hacking :-). 
By the way,

docView = [myScrollView docView];

BEGIN--CUT HERE--
- print:sender {
  // this works because of Scott Hess, bless him!!
  //  the MenuCell button with tag == 0 is the "Print All" menu button
	if (![[sender selectedCell] tag])
	  [docView printPSCode:self];
	else {
	    NXSelPt	start, end;
	    int		length;
	  [docView getSel:&start :&end];  
	  length = end.cp - start.cp;
	  if (length)	// something selected, print it {
	   id		invisibleWindow;
	    static id	textObject = nil;
	    NXStream	*stream;
	    NXRect	frameRect;
	    stream = NXOpenMemory(NULL,0,NX_READWRITE);
	    [docView writeRichText:stream from:start.cp to:end.cp];
	    [docView getFrame:&frameRect]; // gotta have a real frameRect
	    if (!textObject) {	
		// so it won't complain during lockFocus
	      invisibleWindow = [[Window alloc] init];	
	      textObject = [[[[Text alloc] 
	      			initFrame:&frameRect] 
				setMonoFont:NO] 
				setVertResizable:YES];
	      [[invisibleWindow contentView] addSubview:textObject];
	    }
	    else
	      [textObject setFrame:&frameRect];
	    NXSeek(stream, 0, NX_FROMSTART);	// rewind the stream
	    [textObject readRichText:stream];
	    NXClose(stream);
	    [textObject sizeToFit];		// adjust the frameRect
	    [textObject printPSCode:self];
	  }
	}
	return self;
}
