It's sort of overkill for what you want, but Niche Marketing (my sideline
company) sells a terminate-and-stay-resident utility that provides 
transparent Epson MX-80 to PostScript translation for parallel and serial
interface PostScript printers.  We also sell a product specifically for
C program listings, but generally useful for ASCII files that need printing
in a variety of formats.
