Does the Clipper application generate plain text or is it expecting to print to a specific printer type like pcl (eg HP)? Normally your underlying printing system will identify the kind of print output and use the correct filter to convert it to something the printer understands (eg. ps->pcl). Be sure you have that part setup correctly. I use CUPS and so the whole process is almost trivial. What happens if your create a "raw" printer (ie. no print filter) and print to that instead? Note that this will only work if your clipper application outputs in a format the printer itself can understand.
