Yes, we can wrap up the printing APIs inside a dialect (at least
nothing comes to mind that strikes me as impossible). One reason *I*
haven't done this is that won't be cross-platform and I keep hoping
that RT has a plan in place for doing that. Wrapping the printing APIs
will be quite a bit of work and I'd hate to do it only to have RT
release something that makes it obsolete. Of course the amount of
effort will depend on the functionality we want. :) Another aspect is
the fact that people would have to have /pro in order to use it.

It should be possible, maybe even not *too* hard for someone who knows
what they're doing, to create a dialect that emits PostScript. The
next best thing (or maybe the better thing) is PDF.

I may need printing for a project coming up, so you never know. :)
