Non-trivial printing seems like a tough cross-platform challenge, since
I'm sure the models are very different. The other workaround that's
been discussed is using PDF the same way, write to a PDF format and let
Acrobat finish the job. But I don't think anyone's implemented that
yet.

Well, yes. I am developing my script under Linux, but it may be used
under Mac, Win95, or any number of other platforms.

I guess there really isn't a built-in printing mechanism. The
workaround
I have figured out is writing an html file, which can be printed from a
web browser.
