I am teaching an undergraduate course on programming this semester, and we are
using Mac Pascal v3.0 for assignments.
I find it to be a wonderful package for computer novices to learn Pascal--sure
it's interpreted (hence slow), but you can always upgrade to Think Pascal once
you're ready to do real programming. Throwing Think Pascal at novices is, in my
opinion, unwise.
Mac Pascal also provides access to QuickDraw in an easy form; perfect again for
novices to learn basic graphic programming.
As for the original question about printing, I think Rich Siegel has already
answered that one.
